报告摘要 | Distributed consensus has been intensively studied in recent years as a means to mitigate state differences among dynamic nodes on a graph. It has been successfully employed in various applications, e.g., formation control of multi-robots, load balancing, and clock synchronization. However, almost all the existing applications cast an impression of consensus as a simple process to iteratively reach agreement, without any clue on possibility to generate advanced complexity, e.g., emergence of dominance, emergence of intelligent behavior, like distributed path planning. Counterintuitively, in this talk I will show that the opposite side of agreement, which is the dominance by one leading node, can be achieved by distributed iteration, and the complexity of shortest path planning can emerge from a perturbed version of a min-consensus protocol. Theoretical proof and simulation studies will be presented to support the conclusions. | ||
