...Yong Qin; Liang Zhang Purpose This paper aims to address the consensus problem for multi-agent systems (MASs) with unknown states, parameter and nonlinear delay functions, where each agent’s dynamics are governed by coupled ordinary and hyperbolic partial differential equations. Design...

...Xinyu Li; Huanhuan Tian; Peijun Wang; Tingwen Huang Purpose Bipartite consensus problem for uncertain nonlinear multi-agent systems (MASs) under cooperation-competition networks is investigated in this paper. This paper aims to design a fully distributed continuous neural network ( NN ) adaptive...

...Wenjing Wu; Ning Zhao; Liang Zhang; Yuhang Wu Purpose This paper aims to investigate the problem of adaptive bipartite tracking control in nonlinear networked multi-agent systems (MASs) under the influence of periodic disturbances. It considers both cooperative and competitive relationships among...

...Chao Ma Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the neural-network-based containment control of multi-agent systems with unknown nonlinear dynamics. Moreover, communication constraints are taken into account to reflect more realistic communication networks. Design/methodology...

...Yang Meng; Zi Wang Purpose – This paper aims to study that for multi-agent systems, how to find proper control protocols to ensure synchronization when the input set of each agent is not the whole real axis but a discrete set, and how the coarseness of imprecise input sets affect...
