On the dynamics of non-local fractional viscoelastic beams under stochastic agencies
2018
Abstract Non-local viscoelasticity is a subject of great interest in the context of non-local theories. In a recent study, the authors have proposed a non-local fractional beam model where non-local effects are represented as viscoelastic long-range volume forces and moments, exchanged by non-adjacent beam segments depending on their relative motion, while local effects are modelled by elastic classical stress resultants. Long-range interactions have been given a fractional constitutive law, involving the Caputo's fractional derivative. This paper introduces a comprehensive numerical approach to calculate the stochastic response of the non-local fractional beam model under Gaussian white no…
Optical sectioning with a Wiener-like filter in Fourier integral imaging microscopy
2018
Non-scanning, single-shot, 3D integral microscopy with optical sectioning is presented. The method is based on the combination of Fourier-mode integral microscopy with a 3D deconvolution technique. Specifically, the refocused volume provided by a regular back-projection algorithm is 3D deconvolved with a synthetic 3D impulse response function that takes into account the number and positions of the elemental images. The use of this hybrid technique provides a stack of true-color depth-refocused images with significant gain of optical sectioning. The stack can be used, among other applications, to inspect inside the thick microscope specimen, to calculate collections of perspective views wit…

Non-linear systems under parametric white noise input: digital simulation and response
2005
Abstract Monte Carlo technique is constituted of three steps. Therefore, improving such technique in practice means, improving the procedure used in one of the three following steps: (i) sample paths of the stochastic input process, (ii) calculation of the outputs corresponding to the generated input samples by using methods of classical dynamics and (iii) estimating statistics of the output process from sample outputs related to the previous step. For linear and non-linear systems driven by parametric impulsive inputs such as normal or non-normal white noises, a general integration method requires a considerable reduction of the integration step when the impulse occurs, treating the impuls…
Explicit Recursive and Adaptive Filtering in Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces
2014
This brief presents a methodology to develop recursive filters in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Unlike previous approaches that exploit the kernel trick on filtered and then mapped samples, we explicitly define the model recursivity in the Hilbert space. For that, we exploit some properties of functional analysis and recursive computation of dot products without the need of preimaging or a training dataset. We illustrate the feasibility of the methodology in the particular case of the $\gamma$ -filter, which is an infinite impulse response filter with controlled stability and memory depth. Different algorithmic formulations emerge from the signal model. Experiments in chaotic and elect…
Robust control of uncertain multi-inventory systems via linear matrix inequality
2008
We consider a continuous time linear multi inventory system with unknown demands bounded within ellipsoids and controls bounded within ellipsoids or polytopes. We address the problem of "-stabilizing the inventory since this implies some reduction of the inventory costs. The main results are certain conditions under which "-stabilizability is possible through a saturated linear state feedback control. All the results are based on a Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs) approach and on some recent techniques for the modeling and analysis of polytopic systems with saturations.
Patch-Based Image Denoising Model for Mixed Gaussian Impulse Noise Using L1 Norm
2017
Image denoising is the classes of technique used to free the image form the noise. The noise in the image may be added during the observation process due to the improper setting of the camera lance, low-resolution camera, cheap, and low-quality sensors, etc. Noise in the image may also be added during the image restoration, image transmission through the transmission media. To obtain required information from image, image must be noise free, i.e., high-frequency details must be present in the image. There are number of applications where image denoising is needed such as remote location detection, computer vision, computer graphics, video surveillance, etc. In last two decades, numbers of m…
Explicit recursivity into reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces
2011
This paper presents a methodology to develop recursive filters in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHS). Unlike previous approaches that exploit the kernel trick on filtered and then mapped samples, we explicitly define model recursivity in the Hilbert space. The method exploits some properties of functional analysis and recursive computation of dot products without the need of pre-imaging. We illustrate the feasibility of the methodology in the particular case of the gamma-filter, an infinite impulse response (IIR) filter with controlled stability and memory depth. Different algorithmic formulations emerge from the signal model. Experiments in chaotic and electroencephalographic time se…
Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Kidney Transplant Recipients Using Profiled Support Vector Machines
2007
This paper proposes a twofold approach for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of kidney recipients using support vector machines (SVMs), for both predicting and detecting Cyclosporine A (CyA) blood concentrations. The final goal is to build useful, robust, and ultimately understandable models for individualizing the dosage of CyA. We compare SVMs with several neural network models, such as the multilayer perceptron (MLP), the Elman recurrent network, finite/infinite impulse response networks, and neural network ARMAX approaches. In addition, we present a profile-dependent SVM (PD-SVM), which incorporates a priori knowledge in both tasks. Models are compared numerically, statistically, and in…
Direct evaluation of jumps for nonlinear systems under external and multiplicative impulses
2015
In this paper the problem of the response evaluation of nonlinear systems under multiplicative impulsive input is treated. Such systems exhibit a jump at each impulse occurrence, whose value cannot be predicted through the classical differential calculus. In this context here the correct jump evaluation of nonlinear systems is obtained in closed form for two general classes of nonlinear multiplicative functions. Analysis has been performed to show the different typical behaviors of the response, which in some cases could diverge or converge to zero instantaneously, depending on the amplitude of the Dirac's delta.
