Most existing flocking algorithms assume one single virtual leader and rely on information on both relative positions and relative velocities among neighboring *** this paper,the problem of controlling a flock of mobile autonomous agents to follow multiple virtual leaders is investigated by using only position information in the sense that agents with the same virtual leader asymptotically attain the same velocity and track the corresponding virtual leader based on only position measurements.A flocking algorithm is proposed under which every agent asymptotically attains its desired velocity,collision between agents can be avoided,and the final tight formation minimizes all agents' global potentials.A simulation example is presented to verify and illustrate the theoretical results.

The prediction of landslide displacement is essential for carrying out to improve the disaster warning system and reduce casualties and property losses. This study applies a novel neural network technique, extreme learning machine (ELM) with kernel function, to landslide displacement prediction problem. However, the generalization performance of ELM with kernel function depends closely on the kernel types and the kernel parameters. In this paper, we use a convex combination of Gaussian kernel function and polynomial kernel function in ELM, which may use these two types of kernel functions' advantages. In order to avoid blindness and inaccuracy in parameter selection, a novel hybrid optimization algorithm based on the combination of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA) is used to optimize the regularization parameter C, the Gaussian kernel parameter γ, the polynomial kernel parameter q and the mixing weight coefficient η. The performance of our model is verified through two case studies in Baishuihe landslide and Yuhuangge landslide.

Membrane computing is an emergent branch of natural computing, which is inspired by the structure and the functioning of living cells, as well as the organization of cells in tissues, organs, and other higher order structures. Tissue P systems are a class of the most investigated computing mod- els in the framework of membrane computing, especially in the aspect of efficiency. To generate an exponential resource in a polynomial time, cell separation is incorporated into such systems, thus obtaining so called tissue P systems with cell separation. In this work, we exploit the computational efficiency of this model and construct a uniform family of such tissue P systems for solving the independent set problem, a well-known NP-complete problem, by which an efficient so- lution can be obtained in polynomial time.

This paper investigates controllability of discrete-time multi-agent systems with multiple leaders on fixed networks. The leaders are particular agents playing a part in external inputs to steer other member agents. The followers can arrive at any predetermined configuration by regulating the behaviors of the leaders. Some sufficient and necessary conditions are proposed for the controllability of discrete-time multi-agent systems with multiple leaders. Moreover, the case with isolated agents is discussed. Numerical examples and simulations are proposed to illustrate the theoretical results we established.
