The present work belongs to the vast body of research devoted to behaviors that emerge when homogeneous or heterogeneous agents interact. We adopt a stylized point of view in which the individual agents' activities can be assimilated into nonlinear dynamic ...
We discuss the adaptive behaviour of a collection of heterogeneous dynamical systems interacting via a weighted network. At each vertex, the network is endowed with a dynamical system with individual (initially different) control parameters governing the l ...
We study theoretically Bloch oscillations of half-matter, half-light quasiparticles: exciton-polaritons. We propose an original structure for the observation of this phenomenon despite the constraints imposed by the relatively short lifetime of the particl ...
This paper presents a method to learn arbitrary discrete motions from a set of demonstrations. We model a motion as a nonlinear autonomous (i.e. time-invariant) dynamical system, and define the sufficient conditions to make such a system globally asymptoti ...

In this thesis we describe a strategy to control robotic knees and ankles. A dynamical system is used to generate a position trajectory to control a servo motor replacing the missing joint. The dynamical system consists in a pool of coupled oscillators mod ...
Human motion studies have focused primarily on modeling straight point-to-point reaching movements. However, many goal-directed reaching movements, such as movements directed towards oneself, are not straight but rather follow highly curved trajectories. T ...
This paper presents a method for learning discrete robot motions from a set of demonstrations. We model a motion as a nonlinear autonomous (i.e. time-invariant) Dynamical System (DS), and define sufficient conditions to ensure global asymptotic stability a ...
In this contribution we present a generic mechanism to transform an oscillator into an adaptive frequency oscillator, which can then dynamically adapt its parameters to learn the frequency of any periodic driving signal. Adaptation is done in a dynamic way ...
This paper proposes a new class of low-density generator-matrix codes (LDGM) based on chaotic dynamical systems. The codes are designed by controlling symbolic dynamics and using linear convolutional codes. Analyzing the complex structure of chaotic system ...
In this paper we consider a class of hybrid stochastic games with the piecewise open-loop information structure. These games are indexed over a parameter ε which represents the time scale ratio between the stochastic (jump process) and the dete ...
