Adaptive control of a class of slowly time varying systems with modeling uncertainties
(2005)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 ...

Advanced Array Optimizations for High Performance Functional Languages
(1995)In this paper, we discuss and evaluate three opti- mizations for reducing memory management overhead and data copying costs in SISAL 1.2 programs that build arrays. The first, called framework preconstruction, eliminates ...

Analysis of neuromuscular disorders using statistical and entropy metrics on surface EMG
(2008)This paper introduces the surface electromyogram (EMG) classification system based on statistical and entropy metrics. The system is intended for diagnostic use and enables classification of examined subject as normal, ...

Applications of minimum principle for continuous-time partially observable risk-sensitive control problems
(IEEE, 1995)This paper employs the minimum principle derived in [1], for nonlinear partially observable exponential of integral control problems, to solve linear-exponential-quadratic-Gaussian (LEQG) tracking problems using two different ...

Backstepping Control of Linear Time-Varying Systems with Known and Unknown Parameters
(2003)The backstepping control design procedure has been used to develop stabilizing controllers for time invariant plants that are linear or belong to some class of nonlinear systems. The use of such a procedure to design ...

Bogoyavlensky-Volterra and Birkhoff integrable systems
(2004)In this paper we examine an interesting connection between the generalized Volterra lattices of Bogoyavlensky and a special case of an integrable system defined by Sklyanin. The Sklyanin system happens to be one of the ...

Compact, linear, lead/lag phase shifters using negative refractive index metamaterials
(2003)A new type of phase shifter using cascaded sections of NRI metamaterials and PRI transmission lines is proposed, which offers some significant advantages over conventional delay lines. The phase shifter is compact in size, ...

Directly computable L2 and Lx performance bounds for Morse's dynamic certainty equivalence adaptive controller
(1995)In this paper we consider a model reference adaptive control scheme where the classical error augmentation and standard tuning error normalization are avoided through the use of Morse's high order tuner. We consider the ...

Eight-Dimensional Quantum Hall Effect and "Octonions"
(2003)A generalization of the quantum Hall effect (QHE) where particles move in an eight-dimensional space under an SO(8) gauge field was constructed. A nonrelativistic Hamiltonian for particles moving on the S8 in the presence ...

Evolutionary-fuzzy prediction for strategic QoS routing in broadband networks
(IEEE, 1998)We present an application of evolutionary-fuzzy prediction in inter-domain routing of broadband network connections with Quality of Services requirements in the case of an integrated ATM and SDH networking architecture. ...

Fast cloth animation on walking avatars
(2001)This paper describes a fast technique for animating clothing on walking humans. It exploits a mass-spring cloth model but applies a new velocity directional modification approach to overcome its super-elasticity. The ...

Fault-tolerant discrete-time linear time-invariant filters
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2000)Modular redundancy, the traditional approach to fault tolerance, is prohibitively expensive because of the overhead in replicating the hardware. In this paper we discuss alternative methods for obtaining fault-tolerant ...

Finite-State Machine Embeddings for Non-Concurrent Error Detection and Identification
(2003)In digital sequential systems that operate over several time steps, a state-transition fault at any time step during the operation of the system corrupts its state in a way that can render its future functionality useless. ...

Genetics-based machine learning for the assessment of certain neuromuscular disorders
(1996)Clinical electromyography (EMG) provides useful information for the diagnosis of neuromuscular disorders. The utility of artificial neural networks (ANN's) in classifying EMG data trained with backpropagation or Kohonen's ...

Hades experiment: Di-lepton spectroscopy in p + p (2.2 GeV) and C+C (1 and 2 A GeV) collisions
(2006)The HADES (High Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer) is a tool designed for lepton pair (e+e-) spectroscopy in pion, proton and heavy ion induced reactions in the 1-2 A GeV energy range. One of the goals of the HADES ...

Image analysis system for automated detection of breast cancer nuclei
(IEEE Comp Soc, 1997)A study for breast cancer nuclei detection is presented in this paper. The proposed algorithm determines the centers of nuclei in biopsy images using block-based processing of the images followed by singular value decomposition ...

Measurement of prompt charm meson production cross sections in p p̄ collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV
(2003)Differential cross sections dσ/dPT for prompt charm meson production in pp̄ collisions at √s=1.96 TeV were measured. The measured differential cross sections are higher than the theoretical predictions by about 100% at low ...

Measurement of the lifetime difference between Bs mass eigenstates
(2005)We present measurements of the lifetimes and polarization amplitudes for Bs 0 → J/ψφ and Bd 0 → J/ψK*0 decays. Lifetimes of the heavy and light mass eigenstates in the Bs 0 system are separately measured for the first time ...

MIMO disturbance and plant uncertainty attenuation by feedback
(2002)This paper investigates the ability of feedback to reduce plant and disturbance uncertainties in the MIMO case, by solving two fundamental problems posed by Zames in the late seventies. The approach used here is Banach ...

Modeling change of haplotype distributions in random mating populations using random sets
(2004)Several mathematical models have been developed to describe the genetic structure of populations. Most of these models focus on only one, or few genetic loci. In this paper, we develop a model to describe a large number ...
