Abstract

This paper studies the quasi-containment and asymptotic containment problems of networking uncertain agents with multiple leaders over a fixing communication graph. A kind of containment controller consisting of a linear feedback term, a neuro-adaptive approximation term as well as a non-smooth feedback term is designed to complete the goal of quasi-containment. Under the assumption that the subgraph depicting the underlying communication configuration among multiple followers is detail-balanced and each follower can be at least indirectly influenced by one leader, it is proven that quasi-containment can be realized if the containment controller are appropriately designed. The results are then extended to asymptotic containment of networking uncertain agents with multiple leaders.
