arXiv:2507.19895v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we study the distributed linear quadratic problem with fixed communication topology (DFT-LQ) and the sparse feedback linear quadratic (SF-LQ) problem through a unified optimization framework. Specifically, both problems are formulated as a nonconvex, nonsmooth optimization problem equipped with an $\ell_0$-penalty under affine constraints. To solve this problem, we first investigate the application of the Douglas-Rachford (DR) splitting algorithm. Under the local condition that the generated iterates remain on a fixed smo
This paper leverages advanced mathematical optimization techniques, particularly Douglas-Rachford Splitting, to address complex control problems in AI, reflecting ongoing research into more efficient and robust algorithmic foundations.
Improving the efficiency and scalability of control systems through advanced optimization directly impacts the development and application of autonomous systems, including AI agents and advanced robotics.
The unified framework for distributed and sparse linear quadratic problems could lead to more robust and scalable control mechanisms for complex AI systems, potentially accelerating their real-world deployment.
