On frame and orientation localization for relative sensing networks
We develop a novel localization theory for planar networks of nodes that measure each other’s relative position, i.e., we assume that nodes do not have the ability to perform me...

Model reduction for a class of input-quantized systems in the max-plus algebra
Abstract— We present a systematic method for model reduction of a class of input-quantized systems in the max-plus algebra. We consider a generalization of the flow shop with ...

Feedback solutions of optimal control problems with DAE constraints
An optimal feedback control has been obtained for linear-quadratic optimal control problems with constraints described by differential-algebraic equations. For that purpose, a ne...

Reachability analysis of nonlinear systems with uncertain parameters using conservative linearization
— Given an initial set of a nonlinear system with uncertain parameters and inputs, the set of states that can possibly be reached is computed. The approach is based on local line...

A monotonic algorithm for the optimal control of the Fokker-Planck equation
— Motivated by some crowd motion models in the presence of noise, we consider an optimal control problem governed by the Fokker-Planck equation. We sketch optimality conditions b...
