— In this paper, we investigate a distributed aggregative optimization problem in a network, where each agent has its own local cost function which depends not only on the local state variable but also on an aggregated function of state variables from all agents. To accelerate the optimization process, we combine heavy…

'António Lopes'] This study aims to unravel the resource allocation problem (RAP) by using a consensus-based distributed optimization algorithm under dynamic event-triggered (DET) strategies. Firstly, based on the multi-agent consensus approach, a novel one-to-all DET strategy is presented to solve the RAP. Secondly…

Non-smooth and non-convex optimization problems are pervasive in machine learning, control, and signal processing, due to the need for sparse solutions and the inherently non-convex nature of many objective functions. In this paper, we study non-smooth and non-convex distributed optimization problems. We propose a…

In this paper, the distributed strongly convex optimization problem is studied with spatio-temporal compressed communication and equality constraints. For the case where each agent holds an distributed local equality constraint, a distributed saddle-point algorithm is proposed by employing distributed filters to derive…

For a network of robots working in a specific environment, relative localization among robots is the basis for accomplishing various upper-level tasks. To avoid the latency and fragility of long-range or multi-hop communication, distributed relative localization algorithms, in which robots take local measurements and…

This paper proposes a general-purpose multi-agent Bayesian optimization (MABO) where agents are connected via shared variables or constraints, and each agent’s local cost is unknown. The proposed approach is general-purpose in the sense that it can be used with a broad class of decomposition methods, whereby we augment…

As an important incomplete algorithm for solving Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems (DCOPs), local search algorithms exhibit the advantages of flexibility, high efficiency and high fault tolerance. However, the significant historical values of agents that affect the local cost and global cost are never taken…

Recent advancements in neuroimaging have led to greater data sharing among the scientific community. However, institutions frequently maintain control over their data, citing concerns related to research culture, privacy, and accountability. This creates a demand for innovative tools capable of analyzing amalgamated…

Federated learning is an upcoming machine learning paradigm which allows data from multiple sources to be used for training of classifiers without the data leaving the source it originally resides. This can be highly valuable for use cases such as medical research, where gathering data at a central location can be…

Machine olfaction—the artificial replication of the sense of smell—faces significant challenges due to the absence of large, standardized training datasets. Unlike vision, language, and audio models, which benefit from extensive corpora such as ImageNet, GLUE, and AudioSet, olfaction lacks scaled equivalents and…

Solving optimization problems, especially for nonlinear and constrained systems, is a challenge. Decades of specialized algorithms have been developed for general and special cases of root finding, minimization (including constraints), for parameter estimation, and mapping connected spaces. These approaches typically…
