Structural Controllability of Boolean Control Networks under Partial Information

Controllability and observability of Boolean control networks

The controllability and observability of Boolean control networks are investigated. After a brief review on converting a logic dynamics to a discrete-time linear dynamics with a transition matrix, some formulas are obtained for retrieving network and its logical dynamic equations from this network transitionmatrix. Based on the discrete-time dynamics, the controllability via two kinds of inputs...

Controllability of time-delayed Boolean multiplex control networks under asynchronous stochastic update

In this article, the controllability of asynchronous Boolean multiplex control networks (ABMCNs) with time delay is studied. Firstly, dynamical model of Boolean multiplex control networks is constructed, which is assumed to be under Harvey' asynchronous update and time delay is introduced both in states and controls. By using of semi-tensor product (STP) approach, the logical dynamics is conver...

Controllability of structural brain networks

Cognitive function is driven by dynamic interactions between large-scale neural circuits or networks, enabling behaviour. However, fundamental principles constraining these dynamic network processes have remained elusive. Here we use tools from control and network theories to offer a mechanistic explanation for how the brain moves between cognitive states drawn from the network organization of ...

Control of Interbank Contagion Under Partial Information

Structural controllability of unidirectional bipartite networks

The interactions between fundamental life molecules, people and social organisations build complex architectures that often result in undesired behaviours. Despite all of the advances made in our understanding of network structures over the past decade, similar progress has not been achieved in the controllability of real-world networks. In particular, an analytical framework to address the con...
