Characteristic Modeling Approach for Complex Network Systems
Lei Chen, Xinghuo Yu, Changyin Sun · IEEE Transactions on Systems Man and Cybernetics Systems · 2017
This paper proposes a sampled data-based modeling approach for complex network systems. A compression method, known as characteristic modeling, is used to construct microscopic models from macroscopic observations. Based on this model, a novel control method is also developed to achieve network synchronization. The proposed approach can reduce both the complexity of microscopic dynamics and overall networks. Its application to pinning control design validates the effectiveness of this approach.
