In this article, we propose a multi-staged algorithm to detect the magnitude, direction and location of a single external force applied to a humanoid robot while performing dynamic tasks. We use contact force and joint torque sensors as well as IMU to esti ...
This thesis addresses statistical inference for the resolution of inverse problems. Our work is motivated by the recent trend whereby classical linear methods are being replaced by nonlinear alternatives that rely on the sparsity of naturally occurring sig ...
This paper proposes a tradeoff between computational time, sample complexity, and statistical accuracy that applies to statistical estimators based on convex optimization. When we have a large amount of data, we can exploit excess samples to decrease stati ...
Mass determinations from gravitational lensing shear and the higher order estimator flexion are both subject to the mass-sheet degeneracy. Mass sheet degeneracy refers to a transformation that leaves the reduced shear and flexion invariant. In general, thi ...
In Part II of this paper, also in this issue, we carried out a detailed mean-square-error analysis of the performance of asynchronous adaptation and learning over networks under a fairly general model for asynchronous events including random topologies, ra ...

We develop a canonical framework for the study of the problem of registration of multiple point processes subjected to warping, known as the problem of separation of amplitude and phase variation. The amplitude variation of a real random function {Y(x) : x ...
During the last years, Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) reflectometry (GNSS-R) receivers have proven in several field experiments that GNSS signals reflected and scattered from the Earth’s surface can be used in passive remote sensing application ...
Solving a linear inverse problem may include difficulties such as the presence of outliers and a mixing matrix with a large condition number. In such cases a regularized robust estimator is needed. We propose a new tau-type regularized robust estimator tha ...
Swarms of autonomous MAVs show great potential in many diverse applications. In a search and rescue mission, a group of MAVs could quickly reach disaster areas by flying over obstacles, cluttered and inaccessible terrains, and work in parallel to detect an ...
We consider Poisson regression with the canonical link function. This regression model is widely used in regression analysis involving count data; one important application in electrical engineering is transmission tomography. In this paper, we establish t ...
