Views selection for SIFT based object modeling and recognition
2016
In this paper we focus on automatically learning object models in the framework of keypoint based object recognition. The proposed method uses a collection of views of the objects to build the model. For each object the collection is composed of N×M views obtained rotating the object around its vertical and horizontal axis. As keypoint based object recognition using a complete set of views is computationally expensive, we focused on the definition of a selection method that creates, for each object, a subset of the initial views that visually summarize the characteristics of the object and should be suited for recognition. We select the views by determining maxima and minima of a function, …

Further results on H<inf>&#x221E;</inf> control of switched linear time-delay systems
2012
In this note, we study the problems of stability analysis and H ∞ controller synthesis of discrete-time switched systems with time-varying delay. The system under consideration is firstly transformed into an interconnection system. Based on the system transformation and the scaled small gain theorem, the asymptotic stability of the original system is examined via the version of the bounded realness of the transformed forward system. The aim of the proposed approach is to reduce conservatism, which is made possible by a precise approximation of the time-varying delay and the input-output approach. The proposed stability condition is demonstrated to be much less conservative than most existin…
Spaces of weighted symbols and weighted sobolev spaces on manifolds
1987
This paper gives an approach to pseudodifferential operators on noncompact manifolds using a suitable class of weighted symbols and Sobolev spaces introduced by H.O. Cordes on ℙ. Here, these spaces are shown to be invariant under certain changes of coordinates. It is therefore possible to transfer them to manifolds with a compatible structure.
Invariant aspects in M-commerce environments
2005
Mobile phones and other small and powerful portable devices have revolutionized personal communication and affected the lifestyles of the people in the industrialized world. Following credible estimates, in a few years there will over two - billions of such portable devices in use. An emerging trend is the electronic commerce performed using mobile terminals over wireless networks, often called mobile commerce or M-commerce. Mobile commerce environments are characterized by high complexity, including myriads of technical and organizational aspects. This property makes it difficult to distinguish the more fundamental issues, structures, and concepts in mobile commerce from the hype. To captu…
Extended Kalman Filter for sensorless control of induction motors
2010
This paper deals with speed and rotor flux estimation of induction motors via Extended Kalman Filter (EKF). The filter is designed starting from a discrete time model obtained by means of a first order discretization of the original nonlinear model of the induction motor (IM). In order to obtain accurate estimation of the above mentioned variables, the load torque is included into the state variables and then estimated, thus constructing a sixth order EKF. Experimental results are shown with reference to a closed loop sensorless control system, consisting of a 750 W induction motor supplied by a voltage source inverter, a cascade controller consisting of four PI control loops and the design…
Applications de type Lasota–Yorke à trou : mesure de probabilité conditionellement invariante et mesure de probabilité invariante sur l'ensemble des …
2003
Abstract Let T :I→I be a Lasota–Yorke map on the interval I, let Y be a nontrivial sub-interval of I and g 0 :I→ R + , be a strictly positive potential which belongs to BV and admits a conformal measure m. We give constructive conditions on Y ensuring the existence of absolutely continuous (w.r.t. m) conditionally invariant probability measures to nonabsorption in Y. These conditions imply also existence of an invariant probability measure on the set X∞ of points which never fall into Y. Our conditions allow rather “large” holes.
A Note on Robust Intensity Estimation for Point Processes
1992
A robust intensity estimator based on independent marking is derived. A simulation study is made to convince that the new estimator works also in such cases where the usual estimators based on the distance methods do not work. Some truncated distributions are derived.
k-Step shape estimators based on spatial signs and ranks
2010
In this paper, the shape matrix estimators based on spatial sign and rank vectors are considered. The estimators considered here are slight modifications of the estimators introduced in Dümbgen (1998) and Oja and Randles (2004) and further studied for example in Sirkiä et al. (2009). The shape estimators are computed using pairwise differences of the observed data, therefore there is no need to estimate the location center of the data. When the estimator is based on signs, the use of differences also implies that the estimators have the so called independence property if the estimator, that is used as an initial estimator, has it. The influence functions and limiting distributions of the es…
Sequential estimation of a location parameter and powers of a scale parameter from delayed observations
2013
The problem of sequentially estimating a location parameter and powers of a scale parameter is considered in the case when the observations become available at random times. Certain classes of sequential estimation procedures are derived under an invariant balanced loss function and with the observation cost determined by a convex function of the stopping time and the number of observations up to that time.
