In this article, an efficient hierarchical control framework is proposed to address the cooperation problems (e.g., consensus tracking, formation tracking, and time-varying formation tracking) for the networked marine surface vehicles in the presence of external disturbances, actuator faults and failures. Based on this framework, several learning-based hierarchical control algorithms are developed, involving an iterative learning-based estimator and a local observer-based finite-time controller. The estimator is designed to achieve sufficiently precise estimation of the leader states through enough iterations, while the observer-based finite-time controller is used to observe and compensate the dynamic uncertainties as well as stabilize the error states in a finite time. By using the theories of Hurwitz, Schur, and Lyapunov stability, the sufficient conditions for guaranteeing the convergence of these learning-based hierarchical control algorithms are derived. Finally, numerical simulations are performed on the Cyber-Ships II to verify the effectiveness of the presented algorithms.

The effectiveness of rehabilitation treatment with the Body Weight Support (BWS) system has been demonstrated in patients with stroke and spinal cord injury. Many recent studies used expensive force sensors to realize the force control, which plays an important role in a BWS system. To reduce the system cost and complexity, and overcome some shortcomings of force sensors like measurement noise and lag, a force sensorless admittance control method is proposed. Then, an active BWS platform has been designed to verify the effect of the sensorless control method. The robust stability of the BWS system was proved through the small gain theorem. Human walking experiments assisted by the BWS system were conducted. It turns out that the estimated force is in close agreement with the value measured by the force sensor. The proposed controller achieved a control deviation of less than 10% around a desired mass offload during the experiments. It was validated effective for the proposed controller in accurate force control.

Removing incorrect keypoint correspondences between two images is a fundamental yet challenging task in computer vision. A popular pipeline first computes a feature vector for each correspondence and then trains a binary classifier using these features. In this paper, we propose a novel robust feature to better fulfill the above task. The basic observation is that the relative order of neighboring points around a correct match should be consistent from one view to another, while it may change a lot for an incorrect match. To this end, the feature is designed to measure the bidirectional relative ranking difference for the neighbors of a reference correspondence. To reduce the negative effect of incorrect correspondences in the neighborhood when computing the feature, we propose to combine spatially nearest neighbors with geometrically "good" neighbors. We also design an iterative neighbor weighting strategy, which considers both goodness and correctness of a correspondence, to enhance correct correspondences and suppress incorrect correspondences. As the relative order of neighbors encodes structure information between them, we name the proposed feature the Mutual Structure Shift Feature (MSSF). Finally, we use the proposed features to train a random forest classifier in a supervised manner. Extensive experiments on both raw matching quality and downstream tasks are conducted to verify the performance of the proposed method.

This article addresses the multistability and attraction of fractional-order neural networks (FONNs) with unbounded time-varying delays. Several sufficient conditions are given to ensure the coexistence of equilibrium points (EPs) of FONNs with concave-convex activation functions. Moreover, by exploiting the analytical method and the property of the Mittag-Leffler function, it is shown that the multiple Mittag-Leffler stability of delayed FONNs is derived and the obtained criteria do not depend on differentiable time-varying delays. In particular, the criterion of the Mittag-Leffler stability can be simplified to M-matrix. In addition, the estimation of attraction basin of delayed FONNs is studied, which implies that the extension of attraction basin is independent of the magnitude of delays. Finally, three numerical examples are given to show the validity of the theoretical results.

In this paper, the fixed-time intra/inter-layer output synchronization problem of output-coupled multiplex networks is investigated utilizing a dynamic event-triggered control method. Firstly, to solve the issue of unavailability of node states resulting from uncontrollable factors, a multiplex networks model with observable intra/inter-layer output coupling information is constructed. Subsequently, two dynamic event-triggered control strategies based on output information are proposed, on the basis of which the fixed-time output synchronization criteria are established and Zeno behavior is excluded. The controllers proposed in this paper replace the common linear terms and multiple power-law terms in the existing fixed-time controllers with an exponential term based on the output errors, and also no longer include the intra/inter-layer coupling information of the nodes, making the form of the controllers more streamlined and easier to implement the control strategies. Finally, the effectiveness of the designed control protocols is verified by some numerical simulations based on Chua's circuit as well as spacecraft formation control.

In this paper, we study a class of distributed constraint-coupled optimization problems, where each local function is composed of a smooth and strongly convex function and a convex but possibly non-smooth function. We design a novel proximal nested primal-dual gradient algorithm (Prox-NPGA), which is a generalized version of the exiting algorithm- NPGA. The convergence of Prox-NPGA is proved and the upper bounds of the step-sizes are given. Finally, numerical experiments are employed to verify the theoretical results and compare the convergence rates of different versions of Prox-NPGA.(c) 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Depth estimation is one of the most important tasks in scene understanding. In the existing joint self-supervised learning approaches of depth-pose estimation, depth estimation and pose estimation networks are independent of each other. They only use the adjacent image frames for pose estimation and lack the use of the estimated geometric information. To enhance the depth-pose association, we propose a monocular multi-frame unsupervised depth estimation framework, named PLPE-Depth. There are a depth estimation network and two pose estimation networks with image input and pseudo-LiDAR input. The main idea of our approach is to use the pseudo-LiDAR reconstructed from the depth map to estimate the pose of adjacent frames. We propose depth re-estimation with a better pose between the image pose and the pseudo-LiDAR pose to improve the accuracy of estimation. Besides, we improve the reconstruction loss and design a pseudo-LiDAR pose enhancement loss to facilitate the joint learning. Our approach enhances the use of the estimated depth information and strengthens the coupling between depth estimation and pose estimation. Experiments on the KITTI dataset show that our depth estimation achieves state-of-the-art performance at low resolution. Our source codes will be released on https://***/IRMVlabIPLPE-Depth.
