Most-cited papers in Frontiers in Control Engineering

Graph neural networks for decentralized multi-agent perimeter defense

Elijah S. Lee, Lifeng Zhou, Alejandro Ribeiro et al. · 13 Jan 2023

In this work, we study the problem of decentralized multi-agent perimeter defense that asks for computing actions for defenders with local perceptions and communications to maximize the capture of intruders. One major challenge for practical implementations is to make perimeter defense strategies scalable for large-scale problem instances. To this end, we leverage graph neural networks…

Multiplayer reach-avoid differential games with simple motions: A review

Rui Yan, Ruiliang Deng, Xiaoming Duan et al. · 10 Jan 2023

This paper reviews the recent works on multiplayer reach-avoid (M-RA) differential games between two adversarial teams in a game region which is split into a goal region and a play region. The pursuit team aims to protect the goal region from the evasion team by cooperatively capturing the evaders which start from the play region…

Automatic generation and updating of process industrial digital twins for estimation and control - A review

Wolfgang Birk, Roland Hostettler, Maryam Razi et al. · 25 Aug 2022

This review aims at assessing the opportunities and challenges of creating and using digital twins for process industrial systems over their life-cycle in the context of estimation and control. The scope is, therefore, to provide a survey on mechanisms to generate models for process industrial systems using machine learning (purely data-driven) and automated equation-based modeling.…

Aerial Survey Robotics in Extreme Environments: Mapping Volcanic CO2 Emissions With Flocking UAVs

John Ericksen, G. Matthew Fricke, Scott Nowicki et al. · 15 Mar 2022

We present methods for autonomous collaborative surveying of volcanic CO 2 emissions using aerial robots. CO 2 is a useful predictor of volcanic eruptions and an influential greenhouse gas. However, current CO 2 mapping methods are hazardous and inefficient, as a result, only a small fraction of CO 2 emitting volcanoes have been surveyed. We…

Inference of regulatory networks through temporally sparse data

Mohammad Alali, Mahdi Imani · 10 Dec 2022

A major goal in genomics is to properly capture the complex dynamical behaviors of gene regulatory networks (GRNs). This includes inferring the complex interactions between genes, which can be used for a wide range of genomics analyses, including diagnosis or prognosis of diseases and finding effective treatments for chronic diseases such as cancer. Boolean networks…

Frontiers in Control Engineering template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Frontiers in Control Engineering format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Frontiers in Control Engineering template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Frontiers format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Frontiers in Control Engineering use?
Frontiers in Control Engineering uses Author–year (Harvard) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, A., Jones, B. and Lee, C.
