About
Xuefei Yang is a leading researcher in resilient multi-agent systems and human-in-the-loop (HiTL) control, with a focus on securing cyber-physical networks against sophisticated adversarial threats. Her most cited work, "Resilient Human-in-the-Loop Formation-Tracking of Multi-UAV Systems Against Byzantine Attacks" (2024, 26 citations), pioneers a framework for maintaining coordinated UAV formation-tracking under f-local Byzantine attacks—where compromised agents deliberately inject false data. This contribution is pivotal for defense and disaster-response applications, demonstrating how human operators can retain supervisory control even when a subset of drones is malicious. Yang’s research bridges theoretical resilience algorithms with practical HiTL constraints, offering provable guarantees for multi-UAV stability under attack. Her work has been recognized for its impact on autonomous systems security, earning citations from top-tier control and robotics venues. By integrating human decision-making into resilient formation control, Yang addresses a critical gap in ensuring trust in autonomous swarms, making her a key figure in the next generation of safe, human-centered AI systems.
