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.
Short-term residential load forecasting is essential to demand side response. However, the frequent spikes in the load and the volatile daily load patterns make it difficult to accurately forecast the load. To deal wi...

This paper presents a lithium-ion battery pack equalization system and method. The batteries are divided into several groups, which are connected in parallel with the bidirectional DC-DC converters respectively, and the output of DC-DC converters ends are connected in series with each other as a DC bus. The scheme divides equalization of the cells into two stages: intra-group equalization and inter-group equalization, and the two stages are respectively realized by battery time-sharing-access structure and stack energy-sharing structure. Then equalization strategy of the distributed battery energy storage system under two stages is proposed, especially the Single Cell Battery Access Timing Algorithm and MPC Algorithm. The simulation results show that the proposed battery management structure and control strategy can realize fast and accurate SOC equalization.

The terminal guidance problem of a hypervelocity gliding vehicle to intercept a stationary target in the planar scenario is considered. In addition to impact position accuracy, the guidance law must meet the impact angle and speed demand. This problem is formulated as an infinite-time horizon nonlinear regulator problem, and solved with the state-dependent Riccati equation (SDRE) control technique. We convert the system to a linear-like structure with state-dependent coefficient (SDC) matrices and derive a closed-loop state-feedback control law using the SDRE method. A new state is introduced concerning the impact speed constraint. By rotating the coordinate system, the guidance scheme is extended to satisfy arbitrary impact angle. The state weighting matrix is chosen as the function of time-to-go to include the distance information between the vehicle and target. The numerical simulations are carried out for different impact angles and speeds, the results of which verify the effectiveness of the proposed guidance approach.

When an monocular vision-based unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) based on vision is flown to the final approach fix to intercept the glide slope without the navigation of Global Positioning System (GPS), the position and orientation of the airport runway in image must be detected accurately so as to a host of suitable procedures have to be followed. The optimum length of the final approach is about five miles from the runway threshold. The front view of the runway, which is achieved at the moment, is very illegible. The approaching marking (cross bar) of the runway are showed as some white spots of high intensity and the complicated backgrounds of the airport are included in the images. In this case, spots with high intensity should be extracted and classified, some of these spots are just the images of the background noises and the pseudo-targets, which can't be separated with the spots of the runway as in the view there is no significant characteristic difference among them ostensibly. Fortunately, in the terrestrial coordinate space, most of the runway marks are located at the apexes of a rectangle, having some geometric relationships. The relationship among the projection coordinates of the runway spots in the images can be determined according to the perspective principle, the constraint condition of the rectangle as well as the front shot constraint condition of the target, by using this relationship, the runway approaching marks can be separated, the position and the direction of the runway in the images can be identified. In this paper, the clustering management is adopted so as to greatly reduce the computing time. The consequence of the experiments shows that by this algorithm, even from a place far away from the runway whose marks are unclear, we also can effectively detect the runway.

In this paper, a face recognition method using local qualitative representations is proposed to solve the problem of face recognition in varying lighting. Based on the observation that the ordinal relationship between the average brightness of image regions pair is invariant under lighting changes, Local Binary Mapping is defined as an illumination invariant for face recognition based on Local Binary Pattern descriptor, which extracts the local variance features of an image. For the 'symbol' feature vector, hamming distance is used as similarity measurement. It has been proved that the proposed method can provide the accuracy of 100 percent for subset 2, 3, 4 and 98.89 percent for subset 5 of the Yale facial database B when all images in subset 1 are used as gallery.

A fast object detection method based on object region dissimilarity and 1-D AGADM(one dimensional average gray absolute difference maximum) between object and background isproposed for real-time defection of small offshore targets. Then computational complexity, antinoiseperformance, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) gain between original images and their results as afunction of SNR of original images and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve are analyzed andcompared with those existing methods of small target detection such as two dimensional average grayabsolute difference maximum (2-D AGADM), median contrast filter algorithm and multi-level filteralgorithm. Experimental results and theoretical analysis have shown that the proposed method hasfaster speed and more adaptability to small object shape and also yields improved SNR performance.
