概要

The aim of the organized session is to introduce the most recent works on control theory on networks and its applications to robotics, communications, and social networks. In this session, we will have one invited presentation and 5 regular presentations. The presenters are mostly researchers of control theory, but we welcome people in all areas of research.

スケジュール

12:40～13:40: Control Theory on Networks (1)
- Invited Talk: Multi-Robot Coordination Based on Gradient Systems
  Shinsaku Izumi (Okayama Prefectural University)
  In this talk, we discuss a controller design method for multi-robot coordination based on gradient systems. Gradient systems are systems where the time derivative of the state is equal to the gradient of a function. In the design method, the controller of each robot is constructed so that the resulting feedback system is the gradient system for a function representing the achievement degree of a motion-coordination task. I introduce this design method and show its application to robotic mass games, that is, to let robots organize themselves into a formation displaying a given grayscale image.
