Abstract

This article investigates the distributed control problem for nonlinear multiagent systems (MASs) with unknown system models. A novel distributed model-free adaptive learning algorithm is developed to learn a controller from the online system data. Notably, a significant advancement over conventional methods is that the proposed algorithm requires only local interaction data from neighboring agents, eliminating dependencies on both a priori system structural knowledge and global topology information. Comprehensive simulations validate the theoretical results and demonstrate the superior efficacy of the devised algorithm.
