An algorithm for estimating time-varying commodity price models
— Given the current financial crisis, there is renewed interest in modelling how the price of commodities change in the market. Traditionally, such models have assumed constant ...

Arbitrarily modulated Markov decision processes
— We consider decision-making problems in Markov decision processes where both the rewards and the transition probabilities vary in an arbitrary (e.g., nonstationary) fashion. We...

A symbolic model approach to the digital control of nonlinear time-delay systems
— In this paper we propose an approach to control design of nonlinear time–delay systems, which is based on the construction of symbolic models, where each symbolic state and e...

Bilevel programming for analysis of low-complexity control of linear systems with constraints
— In this paper we use bilevel programming to find the maximum difference between a reference controller and a low-complexity controller in terms of the infinitynorm difference...

Visual motion observer-based pose synchronization: A passivity approach
— In this paper, we address a motion synchronization problem in SE(3) and present a novel passivity based visual feedback system. Though a passivity based control law to achieve ...
