The design of stabilizing controllers for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) non-linear plants with unknown non-linearities is a challenging problem. The inability to identify the non-linearities on-line or off-line accurately ...

Urban mobility, especially in Metropolitan Areas has drawn the attention of scientists for many decades. As increasing volumes of urban data are captured and become available, new opportunities arise for data-driven analysis ...

Computation of illumination with soft-shadows from all-frequency environment maps, is a computationally expensive process. Use of pre-computation add the limitation that receiver's geometry must be known in advance, since ...

Ubiquitous Internet connectivity enables users to update their Online Social Network profile from any location and at any point in time. These, often geo-tagged, data can be used to provide valuable information to closely ...

Next generation Cloud applications present elastic features and rapidly scale their comprised resources. Consequently, managing and monitoring Cloud applications is becoming a challenge. This paper showcases the functionality ...

Over the last four decades, a large number of structural models have been developed to estimate and price credit risk. The focus of the paper is on a neglected issue pertaining to fundamental shifts in the structural ...

The majority of smartphone localization systems use Assisted-GPS for fine-grained localization in outdoor spaces or WiFi-based RSS (Received Signal Strength) technologies for coarse-grain positioning in indoor and outdoor ...
