Jörg Raisch (Science of Intelligence), “Efficient and Privacy-Preserving Consensus in Multi-Agent Systems”
17 October @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
Achieving consensus, i.e., agreeing on objectives and on relevant aspects of the environment, is a prerequisite whenever a group of individuals (“agents”) attempt to cooperatively solve a task. This requires information exchange between agents. In technical scenarios, information exchange is via wireless communication channels, which exhibit interference. Standard implementations aim at avoiding interference by resorting to multiplexing. However, the resulting algorithms scale poorly with the number of agents and are inherently non-privacy preserving. We will discuss an alternative approach that, by exploiting the wireless channel’s superposition property, improves efficiency and preserves privacy. Results will be illustrated with examples from traffic automation, such as automatic lane changing and distributed automation of traffic intersections for autonomous vehicles.
The reported results are based on joint work with F. Molinari, S. Stanczak, N. Agrawal, and A. Grapentin (all TU Berlin)
This talk will take place in person at SCIoI (room 2.057).
