About

Maitreyee Dutta is a researcher specializing in multi-agent systems, formation control, and networked robotics, with a focus on non-holonomic vehicle coordination. Her work addresses fundamental challenges in synchronizing autonomous agents over directed communication graphs, particularly when vehicles have motion constraints like those of wheeled robots or drones. Her most cited paper, "A δ-Persistently-Exciting Formation Controller for Non-Holonomic Systems Over Directed Graphs" (2023, 3 citations), introduces a novel control law that ensures a group of non-holonomic robots can converge to a rendezvous point and achieve a common orientation—a critical step for complex maneuvers such as coordinated scouting missions. This work is notable for its rigorous theoretical guarantees, leveraging persistent excitation to overcome the limitations of directed graph topologies. In "Coupled output synchronization in networked systems" (2023, 2 citations), Dutta extends these ideas to broader output synchronization problems, providing frameworks for heterogeneous agents to align their behaviors. Though early in her career, her contributions are already recognized for bridging control theory and practical robotics, offering scalable solutions for autonomous swarms. Her research holds promise for applications in search-and-rescue, environmental monitoring, and collaborative transportation, establishing her as an emerging voice in networked control systems.
