      Abrupt and incipient fault isolation of nonlinear uncertain systems 

      Zhang, Xiaodong; Polycarpou, Marios M.; Parisini, T. (2000)
      This paper presents a robust fault diagnosis scheme for abrupt and incipient faults in nonlinear uncertain dynamical systems. A detection and approximation estimator is used for online health monitoring. Once a fault is ...

      Capacity of the class of MIMO channels with incomplete CDI - Properties of mutual information for a class of channels 

      Charalambous, Charalambos D.; Denic, S. Z.; Constantinou, C. (2009)
      This paper is concerned with multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless channel capacity, when the probability distribution of the channel matrix p(H) is not completely known to the transmitter and the receiver. The ...

      Robust adaptive control for a class of MIMO nonlinear systems with guaranteed error bounds 

      Xu, H.; Ioannou, Petros A. (2003)
      The design of stabilizing controllers for multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) nonlinear plants with unknown nonlinearities is a challenging problem. The high dimensionality coupled with the inability to identify the ...

      Robust adaptive control of minimum phase non-linear systems 

      Johansen, T. A.; Ioannou, Petros A. (1996)
      We show that an adaptive input/output feedback linearization control scheme for minimum phase nonlinear systems is robust with respect to unstructured plant uncertainties such as unmodelled dynamics and disturbances provided ...

      Robust Autocorrelation Estimation 

      Chang, Christopher C.; Politis, Dimitris Nicolas (2016)
      In this article, we introduce a new class of robust autocorrelation estimators based on interpreting the sample autocorrelation function as a linear regression. We investigate the efficiency and robustness properties of ...

      Robust minimum variance portfolio optimization modelling under scenario uncertainty 

      Xidonas, Panos; Hassapis, Christis; Soulis, John; Samitas, Aristeidis (2017)
      Our purpose in this article is to develop a robust optimization model which minimizes portfolio variance for a finite set of covariance matrices scenarios. The proposed approach aims at the proper selection of portfolios, ...

      Robust model reference adaptive control for multivariable plants 

      Tao, G.; Ioannou, Petros A. (1988)
      A complete procedure for generating and analysing robust model reference adaptive control schemes for multivariable plants is developed. The procedure consists of two parts: the first part involves the characterization of ...

      Robustness of nonlinear control systems with respect to unmodeled dynamics 

      Zhang, Y.; Ioannou, Petros A. (1999)
      In theory, it can be established that nonlinear control laws for linear or nonlinear plants can be used to meet strict performance requirements. The success of these control designs in practical situations will very much ...
