On stability of linear dynamic systems with hysteresis feedback
2020
The stability of linear dynamic systems with hysteresis in feedback is considered. While the absolute stability for memoryless nonlinearities (known as Lure's problem) can be proved by the well-known circle criterion, the multivalued rate-independent hysteresis poses significant challenges for feedback systems, especially for proof of convergence to an equilibrium state correspondingly set. The dissipative behavior of clockwise input-output hysteresis is considered with two boundary cases of energy losses at reversal cycles. For upper boundary cases of maximal (parallelogram shape) hysteresis loop, an equivalent transformation of the closed-loop system is provided. This allows for the appli…
A predictive learning approach to optimal load sharing in energy management systems
2019
Given the total power demand, $P_{d}$ , current practice of equal load sharing in the process industry is to distribute the load among power supply units and machines (e.g., diesel/aas/wind turbines) in proportion to the maximum power, i.e., $P_{i}=\frac{p_{\max}^{i}}{\sum_{j}P_{\max}^{j}}P_{d}$ , where $P_{\max}^{i}$ denotes the maximum power of the ithunit. However, the efficiency of power supply units, vary in time and are highly individual, even in the case of units from same brand and model. Thus, by considering and utilizing these individual differences, it is possible to share the load in a more fuel/cost/energy optimal manner. To capture this potential, the work presented in this pa…
Algebraic parameter estimation of a multi-sinusoidal waveform signal from noisy data
2013
International audience; In this paper, we apply an algebraic method to estimate the amplitudes, phases and frequencies of a biased and noisy sum of complex exponential sinusoidal signals. Let us stress that the obtained estimates are integrals of the noisy measured signal: these integrals act as time-varying filters. Compared to usual approaches, our algebraic method provides a more robust estimation of these parameters within a fraction of the signal's period. We provide some computer simulations to demonstrate the efficiency of our method.
Algebraic parameter estimation of a biased sinusoidal waveform signal from noisy data
2012
International audience; The amplitude, frequency and phase of a biased and noisy sum of two complex exponential sinusoidal signals are estimated via new algebraic techniques providing a robust estimation within a fraction of the signal period. The methods that are popular today do not seem able to achieve such performances. The efficiency of our approach is illustrated by several computer simulations.
Global sensitivity analysis in welding simulations -- what are the material data you really need ?
2011
In this paper, the sensitivity analysis methodology is applied to numerical welding simulation in order to rank the importance of input variables on the outputs of the code like distorsions or residual stresses. The numerical welding simulation uses the finite element method, with a thermal computation followed by a mechanical one. Classically, a local sensitivity analysis is performed, hence the validity of the results is limited to the neighbourhood of a nominal point, and cross effects cannot be detected. This study implements a global sensitivity analysis which allows to screen the whole material space of the steel family mechanical properties. A set of inputs of the mechanical model-ma…
Identification of Objects Based on Generalized Amplitude-Phase Images Statistical Models
2017
The article presents the dynamical objects identification technology based on statistical models of amplitude-phase images (APIm) – multidimensional data arrays (semantic models) and statistical correlation analysis methods using the generalized discrete Hilbert transforms (DHT) – 2D Hilbert (Foucault) isotropic (HTI), anisotropic (HTA) and total transforms – AP-analysis (APA) to calculate the APIm. The identified objects are modeled with 3D airplanes templates rotated in space around the center of Cartesian coordinate system. The DHT domain system of coordinates displaying the plane projections (2D flat images) remains to be space-invariant. That causes the anisotropic properties of APIm a…
Visual saliency detection in colour images based on density estimation
2017
International audience; A simple and effective method for visual saliency detection in colour images is presented. The method is based on the common observation that local salient regions exhibit distinct geometric and and texture patterns from neighbouring regions. We model the colour distribution of local image patches with a Gaussian density and measure the saliency of each patch as the statistical distance from that density. Experimental results with public datasets and comparison with other state-of-the-art methods show the effectiveness of our method.
VARIABLE SELECTION FOR NOISY DATA APPLIED IN PROTEOMICS
2014
International audience; The paper proposes a variable selection method for pro-teomics. It aims at selecting, among a set of proteins, those (named biomarkers) which enable to discriminate between two groups of individuals (healthy and pathological). To this end, data is available for a cohort of individuals: the biological state and a measurement of concentrations for a list of proteins. The proposed approach is based on a Bayesian hierarchical model for the dependencies between biological and instrumental variables. The optimal selection function minimizes the Bayesian risk, that is to say the selected set of variables maximizes the posterior probability. The two main contributions are: (…

2017
The article presents the abnormal textures identification technology based on structural and statistical models of amplitude-phase images (APIm) – multidimensional data arrays (semantic models) and statistical correlation analysis methods using the generalized discrete Hilbert transforms (DHT) – 2D Hilbert (Foucault) isotropic (HTI), anisotropic (HTA) and total transforms – AP-analysis (APA) to calculate the APIm. The identified fragments of textures are obtained as examples of experimental observation of real mammograms contains areas of pathological tissues. The DHT based information technology as conceptual chart description is discussed and illustrated with DHO domain images. As additio…
Robust Mean Field Games with Application to Production of an Exhaustible Resource
2012
International audience; In this paper, we study mean field games under uncertainty. We consider a population of players with individual states driven by a standard Brownian motion and a disturbance term. The contribution is three-fold: First, we establish a mean field system for such robust games. Second, we apply the methodology to an exhaustible resource production. Third, we show that the dimension of the mean field system can be significantly reduced by considering a functional of the first moment of the mean field process.
