We propose an alternating optimization algorithm for localizing a mobile non-cooperative target using a wireless sensor network. We consider the scenario where sensors receive single-bounce non-line-of-sight signals from the moving target. Each sensor is able to measure the target signal's angle-of-arrival and received signal strength. The transmit powers of the non-cooperative target at different locations are unknown, and estimated jointly with its locations and the orientations of the scatterers off which the target signals are reflected before reaching the sensors. We formulate the problem as a non-convex least squares problem, and then transform and approximate it into a form that is solvable by an alternating algorithm. We show that our algorithm converges, and simulation results demonstrate that our algorithm is able to localize the target with good accuracy.

This paper deals with a fuzzy robust and non-fragile minimax control problem of a trailer-truck model. By introducing parametric uncertainty terms into the T-S model for trailer-truck systems, the fuzzy model approaches to the original system more exactly. Existence conditions are derived for the robust and non-fragile minimax control in the sense of Lyapunov asymptotic stability and formulated in the form of Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs). The convex optimization algorithm is used to get the minimal upper bound of the performance cost and parameter of the optimal minimax controller. Then the closed-loop system will be asymptotically stable under the condition of the worst disturbance and uncertainty. Finally, an illustrative example is used to demonstrate the better robust and non-fragile performance of the controller design.

This paper addresses the problem of fault detection filter design for networked control systems (NCS) subject to limited communication capacity and a class of sensor stuck faults. Considering the communication limitations (e.g., measurement quantization, signal transmission delays, and data packet dropouts) and all possible sensor stuck faults, a unified mathematical model is first presented. Based on this framework, a full-order fault detection filter is designed such that the residual system is asymptotically stable with the prescribed attenuation level in the generalized H_∞ sense. In order to further improve the detection performance, an optimization algorithm is proposed to minimize the threshold. Finally, a spring-mass-damper system is utilized to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

We present and study a distributed optimization algorithm by employing a stochastic dual coordinate ascent method. Stochastic dual coordinate ascent methods enjoy strong theoretical guarantees and often have better performances than stochastic gradient descent methods in optimizing regularized loss minimization problems. It still lacks of efforts in studying them in a distributed framework. We make a progress along the line by presenting a distributed stochastic dual coordinate ascent algorithm in a star network, with an analysis of the tradeoff between computation and communication. We verify our analysis by experiments on real data sets. Moreover, we compare the proposed algorithm with distributed stochastic gradient descent methods and distributed alternating direction methods of multipliers for optimizing SVMs in the same distributed framework, and observe competitive performances.

Light field camera provides 4D information of the light rays, from which the scene depth information can be inferred. The disparity/depth maps calculated from light field data are always noisy with missing and false entries in homogeneous regions or areas where view-dependant effects are present. In this paper we proposed an adaptive guided filtering (AGF) algorithm to get an optimized output disparity/depth map. A guidance image is used to provide the image contour and texture information, the filter is able to preserve the disparity edges, smooth the regions without influence of the image texture, and reject the data entries with low confidence during coefficients regression. Experiment shows AGF is much faster in implementation as compared to other variational or hierarchical based optimization algorithms, and produces competitive visual results.

There are many applications that can benefit from a well planned search. Whether the search objective is a lost hiker, a stolen vehicle on the interstate, or enemies on the battlefield, some assumptions must be made about the search objective before the search can begin. These assumptions focus the search in areas that have a relatively high likelihood of finding the targets of interest. A common approach to mission planning is to apply an optimization algorithm and obtain a good solution based on these assumptions. In general, the mission planner uses simulated targets to emulate the expected target behavior in order to evaluate candidate search paths. In practice, a major drawback is that the prior distribution of targets is only used to evaluate the search paths rather than to guide the optimization algorithm in generating the search paths. This paper introduces a method that explicitly exploits the sampled target distribution to create search paths, which naturally improves the results since the search paths directly depend on the time varying target locations. Results from a realistic cooperative path planning scenario show that explicit usage of target distributions can improve the performance of particle swarm optimization.
