Motion control of bio-inspired mobile robotic platforms can prove a challenging problem. In particular, models for the considered type of systems may prove nonlinear, uncertain, and fairly complicated. To address these issues, use of an output predictor-ba ...
In the framework of stochastic processes, the connection between the dynamic programming scheme given by the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation and a recently proposed control approach based on the Fokker-Planck equation is discussed. Under appropriate assum ...
Cyber-Physical Systems are integrations of computation and physical processes and as such, will be increasingly relevant to industry and people. The complexity of designing CPS resides in their heterogeneity. Heterogeneity manifest itself in modelin ...
A coding scheme is proposed for the memoryless Gaussian broadcast channel with correlated noises and feedback. For all noise correlations other than ±1, the gap between the sumrate that the scheme achieves and the full-cooperation bound vanishes as the sig ...

In this Technical Report we propose a set of improvements with respect to the KernelBoost classifier presented in [Becker et al., MICCAI 2013]. We start with a scheme inspired by Auto-Context, but that is suitable in situations where the lack of large trai ...
In this paper, convergence and performance properties of a sample-data continuous time model predictive control (MPC) scheme with economic performance index are developed. In particular, we provide sufficient conditions for convergence of the close loop st ...
In a multistage secret sharing (MSSS) scheme, the authorised subsets of participants could recover a number of secrets in different stages. A one-stage multisecret sharing (OSMSS) scheme is a special case of MSSS schemes in which all the secrets are recove ...
We introduce quasiquotes for the Scala programming language, which solve the problem of manual tree construction and deconstruction. Included case studies show that quasiquotes indeed are easier to work with than existing tools for tree construction. When ...
In this thesis we address the problem of integrating general purpose programming languages with relational databases. An approach to solving this problem is using raw strings to represent SQL statements. This approach leads to runtime errors and security v ...
In this paper we advocate that it is time for a radical rethinking of database systems design. Developers should be able to leverage high-level programming languages without having to pay a price in efficiency. To realize our vision of abstraction without ...
