Non-fragile sampled data H filtering of general continuous Markov jump linear systems

Mouquan Shen, Guangming Zhang, Yuhao Yuan, Lei Mei (2014)

Kybernetika

This paper is concerned with the non-fragile sampled data H filtering problem for continuous Markov jump linear system with partly known transition probabilities (TPs). The filter gain is assumed to have additive variations and TPs are assumed to be known, uncertain with known bounds and completely unknown. The aim is to design a non-fragile H filter to ensure both the robust stochastic stability and a prescribed level of H performance for the filtering error dynamics. Sufficient conditions for...

Nonlinear Bayesian state filtering with missing measurements and bounded noise and its application to vehicle position estimation

Lenka Pavelková (2011)

Kybernetika

The paper deals with parameter and state estimation and focuses on two problems that frequently occur in many practical applications: (i) bounded uncertainty and (ii) missing measurement data. An algorithm for the state estimation of the discrete-time non-linear state space model whose uncertainties are bounded is proposed. The algorithm also copes with situations when some measurements are missing. It uses Bayesian approach and evaluates maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) estimates of states...

Nonparametric instrumental variables for identification of block-oriented systems

Grzegorz Mzyk (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

A combined, parametric-nonparametric identification algorithm for a special case of NARMAX systems is proposed. The parameters of individual blocks are aggregated in one matrix (including mixed products of parameters). The matrix is estimated by an instrumental variables technique with the instruments generated by a nonparametric kernel method. Finally, the result is decomposed to obtain parameters of the system elements. The consistency of the proposed estimate is proved and the rate of convergence...

Nonquadratic stabilization of continuous-time systems in the Takagi-Sugeno form

Miguel Bernal, Petr Hušek, Vladimír Kučera (2006)

Kybernetika

This paper presents a relaxed scheme for controller synthesis of continuous- time systems in the Takagi-Sugeno form, based on non-quadratic Lyapunov functions and a non-PDC control law. The relaxations here provided allow state and input dependence of the membership functions’ derivatives, as well as independence on initial conditions when input constraints are needed. Moreover, the controller synthesis is attainable via linear matrix inequalities, which are efficiently solved by commercially available...

On the measurement of the activity of a radioactive source and a related stochastic process.

J. M. F. Chamayou (1981)

Stochastica

A method is presented to compute the activity of a radioactive source. The principle of the method is based on the tuning of b, the time constant of the RC circuit of the detector with l being the rate of emission of the source, using a statistical argument.The stochastical process involved refers to the distribution of the following random voltage:Vt = ∑(0 < ti ≤ t) Yi c-b(t - ti)where the ti are Poisson dates of emission and the Yi are random or deterministic pulse heights. The case of...

On the suitability of the internet multimedia storage for steganographic information transfer in MP4 files

Matúš Jókay, Ján Baroš (2012)

Kybernetika

The aim of this work is to analyze suitability of existing internet multimedia storage services to use as a covert (steganographic) transmission channel. After general overview we focus specifically on the YouTube service. In particular, we study the feasibility of the recently proposed new steganographic technique [6] of hiding information directly in the structure of the mp4-encoded video file. Our statistical analysis of the set of 1000 video files stored by this service show the practical limitations...

On-line parameter and delay estimation of continuous-time dynamic systems

Janusz Kozłowski, Zdzisław Kowalczuk (2015)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The problem of on-line identification of non-stationary delay systems is considered. The dynamics of supervised industrial processes are usually modeled by ordinary differential equations. Discrete-time mechanizations of continuous-time process models are implemented with the use of dedicated finite-horizon integrating filters. Least-squares and instrumental variable procedures mechanized in recursive forms are applied for simultaneous identification of input delay and spectral parameters of the...

Optimal control processes associated with a class of discontinuous control systems: Applications to sliding mode dynamics

Arturo Enrique Gil García, Vadim Azhmyakov, Michael V. Basin (2014)

Kybernetika

This paper presents a theoretical approach to optimal control problems (OCPs) governed by a class of control systems with discontinuous right-hand sides. A possible application of the framework developed in this paper is constituted by the conventional sliding mode dynamic processes. The general theory of constrained OCPs is used as an analytic background for designing numerically tractable schemes and computational methods for their solutions. The proposed analytic method guarantees consistency...

Optimal control solution for Pennes' equation using strongly continuous semigroup

Alaeddin Malek, Ghasem Abbasi (2014)

Kybernetika

A distributed optimal control problem on and inside a homogeneous skin tissue is solved subject to Pennes' equation with Dirichlet boundary condition at one end and Rubin condition at the other end. The point heating power induced by conducting heating probe inserted at the tumour site as an unknown control function at specific depth inside biological body is preassigned. Corresponding pseudo-port Hamiltonian system is proposed. Moreover, it is proved that bioheat transfer equation forms a contraction...

Parameter estimation of sub-Gaussian stable distributions

Vadym Omelchenko (2014)

Kybernetika

In this paper, we present a parameter estimation method for sub-Gaussian stable distributions. Our algorithm has two phases: in the first phase, we calculate the average values of harmonic functions of observations and in the second phase, we conduct the main procedure of asymptotic maximum likelihood where those average values are used as inputs. This implies that the main procedure of our method does not depend on the sample size of observations. The main idea of our method lies in representing...

Performance analysis of least squares algorithm for multivariable stochastic systems

Ziming Wang, Yiming Xing, Xinghua Zhu (2023)

Kybernetika

In this paper, we consider the parameter estimation problem for the multivariable system. A recursive least squares algorithm is studied by minimizing the accumulative prediction error. By employing the stochastic Lyapunov function and the martingale estimate methods, we provide the weakest possible data conditions for convergence analysis. The upper bound of accumulative regret is also provided. Various simulation examples are given, and the results demonstrate that the convergence rate of the...

Probabilistic mixture-based image modelling

Michal Haindl, Vojtěch Havlíček, Jiří Grim (2011)

Kybernetika

During the last decade we have introduced probabilistic mixture models into image modelling area, which present highly atypical and extremely demanding applications for these models. This difficulty arises from the necessity to model tens thousands correlated data simultaneously and to reliably learn such unusually complex mixture models. Presented paper surveys these novel generative colour image models based on multivariate discrete, Gaussian or Bernoulli mixtures, respectively and demonstrates...
