Time-optimal path following considers the problem of moving along a predetermined geometric path in minimum time. In the case of a robotic manipulator with simplified constraints, a convex reformulation of this optimal control problem has been derived prev ...

We address the long-standing problem of computing the region of attraction (ROA) of a target set (typically a neighborhood of an equilibrium point) of a controlled nonlinear system with polynomial dynamics and semialgebraic state and input constraints. We ...

Choosing a distance preserving measure or metric is fun- damental to many signal processing algorithms, such as k- means, nearest neighbor searches, hashing, and compressive sensing. In virtually all these applications, the efficiency of the signal process ...
We describe an approximate dynamic programming method for stochastic control problems on infinite state and input spaces. The optimal value function is approximated by a linear combination of basis functions with coefficients as decision variables. By rela ...
This paper proposes a control scheme for distributed sensing using a leader/follower multi-agent architecture. The control objective is to make a group of mobile agents cover and sense a sequence of regions of interest. More specifically, when the leaders ...
Image recovery in optical interferometry is an ill-posed nonlinear inverse problem arising from incomplete power spectrum and bi-spectrum measurements. We formulate a linear version of the problem for the order-3 tensor formed by the tensor product of the ...
Manifold models provide low-dimensional representations that are useful for analyzing and classifying data in a transformation-invariant way. In this paper we study the problem of jointly building multiple pattern transformation manifolds from a collection ...
Erd\H{o}s conjectured in 1946 that every n-point set P in convex position in the plane contains a point that determines at least floor(n/2) distinct distances to the other points of P. The best known lower bound due to Dumitrescu (2006) is 13n/36 - O(1). I ...
