Approximate dynamic programming is emerging as a powerful tool for certain classes of multistage stochastic, dynamic problems that arise in operations research. It has been applie...
In this note, we show, through the use of examples, how generic results for proving fixed-parameter tractability which apply to restricted classes of structures can sometimes be m...
Homologousproteins do not necessarily exhibit identical biochemicalfunction. Despitethis fact, local or global sequence similarity is widely used as an indication of functional id...
— In this paper a strong Lyapunov function is obtained, for the first time, for the supertwisting algorithm, an important class of second order sliding modes (SOSM). This algori...
Abstract. We introduce a natural class of cellular automata characterised by a property of the local transition law without any assumption on the states set. We investigate some al...
