Adaptive Divide and Conquer with Two Rounds of Communication
We introduce a two-round adaptive communication strategy that enables rate-optimal estimation in the white noise model without requiring prior knowledge of the underlying smoothness. In the first round, local machines send summary statistics using $(\log_2(n))^2$ bits to enable the central machine to select the tuning parameters of the procedure. In the second round, another set of statistics are transmitted using optimal number of bits, enabling the central machine to aggregate and produce a f…

Experimentally-Driven Analysis of Stability in Connected Vehicle Platooning: Insights and Control Strategies
This paper presents the development of a tangible platform for demonstrating the practical implementation of cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) systems, an enhancement to the standard adaptive cruise control (ACC) concept by means of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication. It involves a detailed examination of existing longitudinal controllers and their performance in homogeneous vehicle platoons. Moreover, extensive tests are conducted using multiple autonomous experimental vehicle …
