Project Description

A linear network is a network representation of a linear dynamical system. It may consist of input nodes, state nodes, and output nodes. Certain structural properties of the network can guide the design of secure networks, in which any faulty state node can be detected via the output nodes. The objective is to propose guidelines for designing a secure linear network structure.

Research Tasks: literature review, learning control theory and graph theory, network analysis, presentation, etc

Skills that research assistant(s) may need: Required: differential equation, linear algebra, basic control theory, basic graph theory
