Forecasting return products in an integrated forward/reverse supply chain utilizing an ANFIS

D. Thresh Kumar, Hamed Soleimani, Govindan Kannan (2014)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Interests in Closed-Loop Supply Chain (CLSC) issues are growing day by day within the academia, companies, and customers. Many papers discuss profitability or cost reduction impacts of remanufacturing, but a very important point is almost missing. Indeed, there is no guarantee about the amounts of return products even if we know a lot about demands of first products. This uncertainty is due to reasons such as companies' capabilities in collecting End-of-Life (EOL) products, customers' interests...

Formal validation of fuzzy control techniques. Perspectives.

Antonio Sala, Pedro Albertos (1999)

Mathware and Soft Computing

In this paper, a survey of the state of the art and perspectives of two main lines of research in fuzzy control systems is presented: on one hand, the navas interpolative-functional line representing fuzzy systems as parameterized universal function approximators, thus applying nonlinear control and neural network paradigms; on the other hand, a logic-formal approach where fuzzy systems are analysed in terms of logic interpretations, exploring validation, consistency and completeness, uncertainty...

Forward invariant sets, homogeneity and small-time local controllability

Mikhail Krastanov (1995)

Banach Center Publications

The property of forward invariance of a subset of R n with respect to a differential inclusion is characterized by using the notion of a perpendicular to a set. The obtained results are applied for investigating the dependence of the small-time local controllability of a homogeneous control system on parameters.

Fractional kalman filter algorithm for the states parameters and order of fractional system estimation

Dominik Sierociuk, Andrzej Dzieliński (2006)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper presents a generalization of the Kalman filter for linear and nonlinear fractional order discrete state-space systems. Linear and nonlinear discrete fractional order state-space systems are also introduced. The simplified kalman filter for the linear case is called the fractional Kalman filter and its nonlinear extension is named the extended fractional Kalman filter. The background and motivations for using such techniques are given, and some algorithms are discussed. The paper also...

Full cooperation applied to environmental improvements

Monique Jeanblanc, Rafał M. Łochowski, Wojciech Szatzschneider (2015)

Banach Center Publications

We analyse the case of certificates of environmental improvements and full cooperation of two identical agents. We model pollution levels as geometric Brownian motions with quadratic costs of improvements. Our main result is the construction of the optimal improvements strategy in the case of separate actions, collusive actions and fusion. In certain range of the model parameters, the fusion solution generates lower pollution levels than separate and collusive actions.

Fully distributed consensus for high-order strict-feedback nonlinear multiagent systems with switched topologies

Yifei Wu, Sunyu Zheng, Rui Xu, Ronghao Wang, Zhengrong Xiang (2023)

Kybernetika

This paper studies the distributed consensus problem of high-order strict-feedback nonlinear multiagent systems. By employing the adaptive backstepping technique and switched system theory, a novel protocol is proposed for MASs with switched topologies. Global information such as the number of agents and communication topology is not used. In addition, the communication topology between agents can be switched between possible topologies at any time. Based on the Lyapunov function method, the proposed...

Functional observers design for nonlinear discrete-time systems with interval time-varying delays

Yali Dong, Laijun Chen, Shengwei Mei (2019)

Kybernetika

This paper is concerned with the functional observer design for a class of Multi-Input Multi-Output discrete-time systems with mixed time-varying delays. Firstly, using the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional approach, we design the parameters of the delay-dependent observer. We establish the sufficient conditions to guarantee the exponential stability of functional observer error system. In addition, for design purposes, delay-dependent sufficient conditions are proposed in terms of matrix inequalities...
