📝 Abstract
The communication demands of distributed model prediction control (DMPC) can overwhelm even advanced wireless communication technologies as agents must exchange a significant amount of information at least once per time step. To semantically reduce communication demands, this work employs encoder-decoder networks built around long-short term memory (LSTM) cells in a distributed optimization algorithm. Agents publish a reduced representation of a message and receivers reconstruct the original message upon reception. In tests with reduced communication using formations of mobile robots, trained networks retain satisfactory performance and work reliably under conditions overwhelming full communication. As the results show, the usage of LSTMs either allows unprecedented reconstruction accuracy or the usage of different prediction-horizon lengths without the necessity to retrain.
