Spectral long-range interaction of temporal incoherent solitons.
2014
We study the interaction of temporal incoherent solitons sustained by a highly noninstantaneous (Raman-like) nonlinear response. The incoherent solitons exhibit a nonmutual interaction, which can be either attractive or repulsive depending on their relative initial distance. The analysis reveals that incoherent solitons exhibit a long-range interaction in frequency space, which is in contrast with the expected spectral short-range interaction described by the usual approach based on the Raman-like spectral gain curve. Both phenomena of anomalous interaction and spectral long-range behavior of incoherent solitons are described in detail by a long-range Vlasov equation.
Impact of self-steepening on incoherent dispersive spectral shocks and collapse-like spectral singularities
2014
International audience; Incoherent dispersive shock waves and collapselike singularities have been recently predicted to occur in the spectral evolution of an incoherent optical wave that propagates in a noninstantaneous nonlinear medium. Here we extend this work by considering the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation. We show that self-steepening significantly affects these incoherent spectral singularities: (i) It leads to a delay in the development of incoherent dispersive shocks, and (ii) it arrests the incoherent collapse singularity. Furthermore, we show that the spectral collapselike behavior can be exploited to achieve a significant enhancement (by two orders of magnitudes) of…
Probabilistic response of linear structures equipped with nonlinear dampers devices (PIS method)
2008
Passive control introducing energy absorbing devices into the structure has received considerable attention in recent years. Unfortunately the constitutive law of viscous fluid dampers is highly nonlinear, and even supposing that the structure behaves linearly, the whole system has inherent nonlinear properties. Usually the analysis is performed by a stochastic linearization technique (SLT) determining a linear system equivalent to the nonlinear one, in a statistical sense. In this paper the effect of the non-Gaussianity of the response due to the inherent nonlinearity of the damper device will be studied in detail via the Path Integral Solution (PIS) method. A systematic study is conducted…
Deep Gaussian processes for biogeophysical parameter retrieval and model inversion
2020
Parameter retrieval and model inversion are key problems in remote sensing and Earth observation. Currently, different approximations exist: a direct, yet costly, inversion of radiative transfer models (RTMs); the statistical inversion with in situ data that often results in problems with extrapolation outside the study area; and the most widely adopted hybrid modeling by which statistical models, mostly nonlinear and non-parametric machine learning algorithms, are applied to invert RTM simulations. We will focus on the latter. Among the different existing algorithms, in the last decade kernel based methods, and Gaussian Processes (GPs) in particular, have provided useful and informative so…
Cell-average WENO with progressive order of accuracy close to discontinuities with applications to signal processing
2020
In this paper we translate to the cell-average setting the algorithm for the point-value discretization presented in S. Amat, J. Ruiz, C.-W. Shu, D. F. Y\'a\~nez, A new WENO-2r algorithm with progressive order of accuracy close to discontinuities, submitted to SIAM J. Numer. Anal.. This new strategy tries to improve the results of WENO-($2r-1$) algorithm close to the singularities, resulting in an optimal order of accuracy at these zones. The main idea is to modify the optimal weights so that they have a nonlinear expression that depends on the position of the discontinuities. In this paper we study the application of the new algorithm to signal processing using Harten's multiresolution. Se…
Compact-like pulse signals in a new nonlinear electrical transmission line
2013
International audience; A nonlinear electrical transmission line with an intersite circuit element acting as a nonlinear resistance is introduced and investigated. In the continuum limit, the dynamics of localized signals is described by a nonlinear evolution equation belonging to the family of nonlinear diffusive Burgers' equations. This equation admits compact pulse solutions and shares some symmetry properties with the Rosenau-Hyman K(2,2) equation. An exact discrete compactly- supported signal voltage is found for the network and the dissipative effects on the pulse motion analytically studied. Numerical simulations confirm the validity of analytical results and the robustness of these …
Observer-based finite-time fuzzy H∞ control for discrete-time systems with stochastic jumps and time-delays
2014
This paper is concerned with the problem of observer-based finite-time H ∞ control for a family of discrete-time Markovian jump nonlinear systems with time-delays represented by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) model. The main contribution of this paper is to design an observer-based finite-time H ∞ controller such that the resulting closed-loop system is stochastic finite-time bounded and satisfies a prescribed H ∞ disturbance attenuation level over the given finite-time interval. Sufficient criteria on stochastic finite-time H ∞ stabilization via observer-based fuzzy state feedback are presented for the solvability of the problem, which can be tackled by a feasibility problem in terms of linear matrix…
Pattern dynamics in a nonlinear electrical lattice
2003
International audience; In this paper, we present experiments using a nonlinear electrical line, modeling the FitzHugh-Nagumo equation, without recovery term. Different patterns are studied according to the para meters of this medium and initial conditions. We then propose to apply these results to the domain of signal processing. We show that erosion and dilation of a binary signal, two kinds,of binarization-one depending on an amplitude threshold, the other on an energetical threshold-and nonlinear filtering allowing noise removal can be obtained in the same medium.
Nonlinear morphological correlation: optoelectronic implementation
2008
An optoelectronic implementation of the nonlinear morphological correlation by use of a threshold-decomposition technique and a joint transform correlator architecture is presented. This nonlinear morphological correlation provides improved image detection compared with standard linear optical pattern-recognition correlation methods. It also offers a more robust detection of low-intensity images in the presence of high-intensity patterns to be rejected.
Generalized singly-implicit Runge-Kutta methods with arbitrary knots
1985
The aim of this paper is to derive Butcher's generalization of singly-implicit methods without restrictions on the knots. Our analysis yields explicit computable expressions for the similarity transformations involved which allow the efficient implementation of the first phase of the method, i.e. the solution of the nonlinear equations. Furthermore, simple formulas for the second phase of the method, i.e. computation of the approximations at the next nodal point, are established. Finally, the matrix which governs the stability of the method is studied.
