The maximization of a positive (semi) definite complex quadratic form over a finite alphabet is NP-hard and achieved through exhaustive search when the form has full rank. However, if the form is rank-deficient, the optimal solution can be computed with on ...
Coordinating component behaviour and, in particular, concurrent access to resources is among the key difficulties of building large concurrent systems. To address this, developers must be able to manipulate high-level concepts, such as Finite State Machine ...
We synthesize controllers for discrete-time stochastic hybrid systems such that the probability of satisfying a given specification on the system is maximized. The specifications are defined with finite state automata. It is shown that automata satisfactio ...
Reo is a coordination language that can be used to model different systems. We propose a technique for symbolic execution of Reo circuits using the symbolic representation of data constraints in Constraint Automata. This technique enables us to obtain the ...
We describe the design of Kaldi, a free, open-source toolkit for speech recognition research. Kaldi provides a speech recognition system based on finite-state automata (using the freely available OpenFst), together with detailed documentation and a compreh ...
In this article we develop a systematic approach to enforce strong feasibility of probabilistically constrained stochastic model predictive control problems for linear discrete-time systems under affine disturbance feedback policies. Two approaches are pre ...
The upcoming Reconfigurable Video Coding (RVC) standard from MPEG (ISO / IEC SC29WG11) defines a library of coding tools to specify existing or new compressed video formats and decoders. The coding tool library has been written in a dataflow/actor- oriented l ...
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 ...
Model checking transactional memories (TMs) is difficult because of the unbounded number, length, and delay of concurrent transactions, as well as the unbounded size of the memory. We show that, under certain conditions satisfied by most TMs we know of, th ...
The possibility of controlling dexterous hand prostheses by using a direct connection with the nervous system is particularly interesting for the significant improvement of the quality of life of patients, which can derive from this achievement. Among the ...
