Multilevel characterizations of anisotropic function spaces
(2005)We present a general method for extending decomposition systems of L 2(ℝd) to decomposition systems for the anisotropic Triebel-Lizorkin and Besov spaces, Fp,qα,s and Bp,qα,s, respectively, for the full range of the indexes. ...

Multiobjective H2/H∞ by banach space operator theory
(2001)In this paper Banach space duality theory and operator theory are combined to show that the optimal performance index in the multiobjective H2/H∞ is equal to the operator induced norm of a particular operator. This operator ...

Neural network control of unknown systems
(IEEE, 1998)In this paper, we show that for all unknown Multi-Input (MI) nonlinear system that affected by external disturbances, it is possible to construct a semi-global state-feedback stabilizer when the only information about the ...

A new robust adaptive control scheme for linear time varying plants
(2002)In a recent work, a new linear adaptive controller based on certainty-equivalence and backstepping design, which promises a level of transient and asymptotic performance comparable to that of the tuning functions adaptive ...

Nonlinear control design for linear time varying systems
(1996)A new class of linear controllers for linear time varying systems are proposed. These controllers are based on nonlinear tools such as integrator backstepping and nonlinear damping, and on a new filter structure that ...

Note on the distribution of extreme wave crests
(2005)The sea elevation at a fixed point is modelled by means of a second order model, which is a smooth algebraic function of a vector valued Gaussian process. Asymptotic methods, presented first in [1], are used to estimate ...

Optimal merging algorithms for lossless codes with generalized criteria
(2014)This paper presents lossless prefix codes optimized with respect to a payoff criterion consisting of a convex combination of maximum codeword length and average codeword length. The optimal codeword lengths obtained are ...

A Perfect Reconstruction Paradigm for Digital Communication
(2003)In this paper we present a deterministic worst-case framework for reconstruction of discrete data transmissions through dispersive communication channels. This framework can be explored based on robust control ideas and ...

Poisson approximation for a sum of dependent indicators: An alternative approach
(2002)The random variables X1, X2,...,Xn are said to be totally negatively dependent (TND) if and only if the random variables Xi and Σj≠i Xj are negatively quadrant dependent for all i. Our main result provides, for TND 0-1 ...

Power divergence family of tests for categorical time series models
(2002)A fundamental issue that arises after fitting a regression model is that of testing the goodness of the fit. Our work brings together the power divergence family of goodness of fit tests and regression models for categorical ...
