This work presents and studies a distributed algorithm for solving optimization problems over networks where agents have individual costs to minimize subject to subspace constraints that require the minimizers across the network to lie in a low-dimensional ...
Real-time video transcoding has recently raised as a valid alternative to address the ever-increasing demand for video contents in servers' infrastructures in current multi-user environments. High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) makes efficient online trans ...
This work studies the problem of inferring from streaming data whether an agent is directly influenced by another agent over an adaptive network of interacting agents. Agent i influences agent j if they are connected, and if agent j uses the information fr ...
This work develops a fully decentralized variance-reduced learning algorithm for multi-agent networks where nodes store and process the data locally and are only allowed to communicate with their immediate neighbors. In the proposed algorithm, there is no ...
In this thesis, we consider commercial buildings with available heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, and develop methods to assess and exploit their energy storage and production potential to collectively offer ancillary services to th ...
Some recent trends in distributed intelligent systems rely extensively on agent-based approaches. The so-called Multi Agent Systems (MAS) are taking over the management of sensitive data on behalf of their producers and users (e.g., medical records, financ ...
For decades, neuroscientists and psychologists have observed that animal performance on spatial navigation tasks suggests an internal learned map of the environment. More recently, map-based (or model-based) reinforcement learning has become a highly activ ...
We consider an adaptive network made of interconnected agents engaged in a binary decision task. It is assumed that the agents cannot deliver full-precision messages to their neighbors, but only binary messages. For this scenario, a modified version of the ...
