Problem: Design of Intelligent Control Architectures for Distributed Multi-Agent Systems
An architecture design problem for a distributed system begins with specified safety and efficiency objectives for each of the system missions (surveillance, reconnaissance, combat, transport) and aims to characterize control, observation and communication.– Mission decomposition among different agents– Task decomposition for each agent– Inter-agent and agent—mother ship coordination– Continuous control and mode switching logic for
each agent– Fault management
This research attempts to develop fundamental techniques, theoretical understanding and software tools for distributed intelligent control architectures with UCAV as an example.

ONR July 21, 1998
Fundamental Issues for Multi-Agent Systems
Central control paradigm breaks down when dealing with distributed multi-agent systems– Complexity of communication, real-time performance– Risk of single point failure
Completely decentralized control – Has the potential to increase safety, reliability and speed of response – But lacks optimality and presents difficulty in mission and task
decomposition
Real-world environments– Complex, spatially extended, dynamic, stochastic and largely unknown
We propose a hierarchical perception and control architecture– Fusion of the central control paradigm with autonomous intelligent
systems– Hierarchical or modular design to manage complexity– Inter-agent and agent–ship coordination to achieve global performance– Robust, adaptive and fault tolerant hybrid control design and
verification– Vision-based control and navigation

Autonomous Control of Uninhabited Combat Air Vehicles
UCAV missions– Surveillance, reconnaissance, combat, transport
Problem characteristics– Each UCAV must switch between different modes of
operation
• Take-off, landing, hover, terrain following, target tracking, etc.• Normal and faulted operation
– Individual UCAVs must coordinate with each other and with the mothership
• For safe and efficient execution of system-level tasks: surveillance, combat
• For fault identification and reconfiguration– Autonomous surveillance, navigation and target
tracking requires feedback coupling between hierarchies of observation and control

Human-centered system and other autonomous agents to command tactical control?• Given a distributed control problem and the local observation at each site,
what is the inter-site communication (minimal) or coordination protocols required to solve this problem?

Theorem 1 (Lp, poi, fii) is decentrally diagnosable if there exists
n N such that for all f f, ufv Lp, vn, implies
(w Lp) ( i, Ppoi (w) = Ppoi(ufv(f w
If any two sufficiently long plant traces look the same to all the agents, then either they have no failures or have all the same failures.
Synthesis: The communicate all plant observations solution works.
General drawback: Redundant information is communicated.
L() may not be regular even though Lp is regular.
Current focus: Minimal communication, protocol synthesis, trace abstraction
Documentation: Draft paper available and sent to WODES’98
Synthesis of Inter-agent Communication for Decentralized Observation
![Page 11: ONR July 21, 1998 Exploration of Hybrid and Intelligent Control Architectures in Conjunction with Probabilistic Verification S. Shankar Sastry July 21,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649c855503460f9493b8eb/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
ONR July 21, 1998
Each agent has a set of controllable events
Controllable events are a subset of the set of observable events
The next event is either an uncontrollable event from the plant, a controllable event enabled by an agent, or a message event scheduled by an agent
A control objective is specified by a language
Investigate the existence and synthesis of coordination protocols
Decentralized Control of Discrete Event SystemsProblem Formulation

Advantages:– Will synthesize symbolic, event-driven, inter-agent
communication over a finite message set – Very simple models permitting logical or
combinatorial analysis and insights– AHS example: Worked for most coordinating
maneuvers other than stability properties for vehicle following
Limitation: No formal way to capture continuous dynamics– The semantics of an event is generally some
alignment or safety conditions in velocity, position, and euler angles with respect to targets or other agents
– SOLUTION: Distributed control of hybrid systems systems

Thrust 2: Verification and Design Tools
The conceptual underpinning for intelligent multi-agent systems is the ability to verify sensory-motor hierarchies perform as expected
Difficulties with existing approaches:– Model checking approaches (algorithms) grow rapidly in
computational complexity– Deductive approaches are ad-hoc
We are developing hybrid control synthesis approaches that solve the problem of verification by deriving pre-verified hybrid system.
– These algorithms are based on game-theory, hence worst-case safety criterion
– We are in the process of relaxing them to probabilistic specifications.

ONR July 21, 1998
Thrust 2: Verification and Design Tools
Approach– The heart of the approach is not to verify that every run of
the hybrid system satisfies certain safety or liveness parameters, rather to ensure critical properties are satisfied with a certain safety critical probability
Design Mode Verification (switching laws)– To avoid unstable or unsafe states caused by mode
switching (takeoff, hover, land, etc.)
Faulted Mode Verification (detection and handling)– To maintain integrity and safety, and ensure gradual
degraded performance
Probabilistic Verification (worst case vs. the mean behavior)– To soften the verification of hybrid systems by
rapprochement between Markov and Bayesian decision networks

Controller Synthesis for Hybrid Systems
The key problem in the design of multi-modal or multi-agent hybrid control systems is a synthesis procedure.
Our approach to controller synthesis is in the spirit of controller synthesis for automata as well as continuous robust controller controller synthesis. It is based on the notion of a game theoretic approach synthesis. It is based on the notion of a game theoretic approach to hybrid control design.to hybrid control design.

Hierarchical vision for planning at different levels of control hierarchy– Strategic or situational 3D scene description, tactical
target recognition, tracking, and assessment, and guiding motor actions
Control around the vision sensor– Visual servoing and tracking, landing on moving
platforms

What Vision Can Do for Control
Global situation scene description and assessment – Estimating the 3D geometry of the scene, object and
target locations, behavior of the objects• Allows looking ahead in planning, anticipation of future events• Provides additional information for multi-agent interaction
Tactical target recognition and tracking– Using model-based recognition to identify targets
and objects, estimating the motion of these objects• Allows greater flexibility and accuracy in tactical missions• Provides the focus of attention in situation planning

ONR July 21, 1998
Key Issues in Vision and Control: Deliver the Right Information at the Right Time
How to coordinate the planning stage with sensing stage– The planner should adjust to the speed and
uncertainty of the vision system– The vision system should optimize its information
flow from the lower level to the higher level, given the need of the planner
How to adjust the focus of attention– Selecting attention of visual processing in terms of
the object locations, as well as level of abstraction – Fine tuning lower-level vision-motor control loop
A well-designed lower-level vision-motor control alleviates computation requirements of higher-level visual processing
![Page 22: ONR July 21, 1998 Exploration of Hybrid and Intelligent Control Architectures in Conjunction with Probabilistic Verification S. Shankar Sastry July 21,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649c855503460f9493b8eb/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
ONR July 21, 1998
Approach for Hierarchical Vision Processing
Use grouping to extract a compact description of the scene from lower processing
– Reduces the computation complexity of higher-level reasoning, provides a basis for attention selection
– Information estimated from “big picture” of the scene is less likely to be affected by noise in the sensor
– Efficient computation algorithm which is able to capture the “big picture” of a scene has been developed• General results reported in CVPR’97, results on motion reported in ICCV’98

ONR July 21, 1998
Approach for Hierarchical Vision Processing
Applying higher-level reasoning on the groups extracted– Model-based object recognition
• Matching image groups to object models
– 3D scene geometry estimation • Based on the motion correspondence found
– Tracking and behavior analysis of objects
– Applying Bayesian theory in selecting the right level of visual processing
![Page 24: ONR July 21, 1998 Exploration of Hybrid and Intelligent Control Architectures in Conjunction with Probabilistic Verification S. Shankar Sastry July 21,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649c855503460f9493b8eb/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
ONR July 21, 1998
Approach for Lower-level Vision—Motor Control
Vision-guided motor control– Use low-level image, motion flow information in
formulating motor control law• Tracking in the 3D coordinates
– Use optical flow equations to build a model of the scene in 3D space
– Look-ahead control law to allow for visual processing time
• Tracking in the image plane (2D)– Track objects (such as the landing pad) in image
frame– Relate image measurement (such as image location
of the pad, curvature of the lane marker) to motor control law
