Weighted automata are nondeterministic automata with numerical weights on transitions. They can define quantitative languages L that assign to each word w a real number L(w). In the case of infinite words, the value of a run is naturally computed as the ma ...
We formulate and derive a generalization of an orthogonal rational-function basis for spectral expansions over the infinite or semi-infinite interval. The original functions, first presented by Wiener, are a mapping and weighting of the Fourier basis to th ...
A modeling framework is proposed for the control of rigid and flexible cable-like systems such as cranes, together with a systematic algorithm for computing flat outputs of mechanical systems for which the flat output is a linear combination of the free co ...
We study the wave equation on the real line with a potential that falls off like vertical bar x vertical bar(-alpha) for vertical bar x vertical bar -> infinity where 2 < alpha infini ...
In the experience of neutron scattering, the structure factor is a value that can be almost directly measured (through the differential inelastic neutron scattering cross section). Thus it can be interesting to have a calculation which could give a theoret ...

Our goal is to identify families of relations that are useful for reasoning about software. We describe such families using decidable quantifier-free classes of logical constraints with a rich set of operations. A key challenge is to define such classes of ...
We propose a system to characterize the 3-D diffusion properties of the probing bead trapped by a photonic-force microscope. We follow a model-based approach, where the model of the dynamics of the bead is given by the Langevin equation. Our procedure comb ...

Quantitative generalizations of classical languages, which assign to each word a real number instead of a Boolean value, have applications in modeling resource-constrained computation. We use weighted automata (finite automata with transition weights) to d ...
This work constitutes the first extended analysis of the spatial structure of Type-I ELM filament footprints on the JET outer limiters and upper dump plates. The data is obtained using a wide angle infrared diagnostic (with time resolution of 125 Hz) and c ...
