Two recent approaches (Van Overschee, De Moor, N4SID, Automatica 30 (1) (1994) 75; Verhaegen, Int. J. Control 58(3) (1993) 555) in subspace identification problems require the computation of the R factor of the QR factorization of a block-Hankel matrix H, ...
In time series analysis state-space models provide a wide and flexible class. The basic idea is to describe an unobservable phenomenon of interest on the basis of noisy data. The first constituent of such a model is the so-called state equation, which char ...
Spectral factorization is a crucial step in the solution of linear quadratic estimation and control problems. It is no wonder that a variety of methods has been developed over the years for the computation of canonical spectral factors. This paper provides ...
By using first-principles molecular dynamics within density functional theory, we study the structural properties of amorphous GeSe2 at T = 300 K. The amorphous configurations have been obtained via cooling from the liquid state followed by extensive relax ...
Regularization networks are nonparametric estimators obtained from the application of Tychonov regularization or Bayes estimation to the hypersurface reconstruction problem. With the usual algorithm, the computation of the weights scales as O(n3) where ...
The control of the current, position and shape of an elongated cross-section tokamak plasma is complicated by the instability of the plasma vertical position. In this case the control becomes a significant problem when saturation of the power supplies is c ...
This paper describes how a mandatory control course is enhanced with interactive applications. Basic concepts of automatic control, different ways to assess performance and robustness of a controlled system, and limits of closed- loop systems are illustrat ...
A new MATLAB toolbox for computing eigenvalues and invariant subspaces of Hamiltonian and skew-Hamiltonian matrices is described. Based on orthogonal symplectic decompositions, the implemented algorithms are both numerically backward stable and structure-p ...
This paper describes how an undergraduate control course is enhanced with Sysquake interactive applications. Basic concepts in control theory, different ways to assess performance and robustness of a controlled system, and limits of closed-loop systems are ...
We propose a suitable model reduction paradigm -- the certied reduced basis method (RB) -- for the rapid and reliable solution of parametrized optimal control problems governed by partial dierential equations (PDEs). In particular, we develop the methodolo ...
