Communication constraints in the average consensus problem
The interrelationship between control and communication theory is becoming of fundamental importance in many distributed control systems, such as the coordination of a team of autonomous agents. In such a problem, communication constraints impose limits on the achievable control performance. We consider as instance of coordination the consensus problem. The aim of the paper is to characterize t...
متن کاملPerformance metrics in the average consensus problem: A tutorial
The average consensus algorithm is a distributed procedure which allows a network of agents to agree on the average of a set of initial values. The computation occurs through local exchange of information only, namely the information exchange takes place only between agents which are neighbors with respect to a graph representing the system communication architecture. Several performance metric...
متن کاملPrivacy-preserving Average Consensus: Privacy Analysis and Optimal Algorithm Design
The goal of the privacy-preserving average consensus (PPAC) is to guarantee the privacy of initial states and asymptotic consensus on the exact average of the initial value. This goal is achieved by an existing PPAC algorithm by adding and subtracting variance decaying and zero-sum random noises to the consensus process. However, there is lack of theoretical analysis to quantify the degree of t...
متن کاملOptimal strategies for estimating the average fidelity of quantum gates.
We show that the minimum experimental effort to estimate the average error of a quantum gate scales as 2(n) for n qubits and requires classical computational resources ∼n(2)2(3n) when no specific assumptions on the gate can be made. This represents a reduction by 2(n) compared to the best currently available protocol, Monte Carlo characterization. The reduction comes at the price of either havi...
متن کاملOptimal algorithms for the average-constrained maximum-sum segment problem
a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t Given a real number sequence A = (a 1 , a 2 ,. .. ,a n), an average lower bound L, and an average upper bound U , the Average-Constrained Maximum-Sum Segment problem is to locate a segment A(i, j) = (a i , a i+1 ,. .. ,a j) that maximizes ik j a k subject to L (ik j a k)/(j − i + 1) U. In this paper, we give an O (n)-time algorithm for the case where the av...
