Unlike for Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) systems, for nonlinear systems, there exists no general framework for systematic convex controller design which incorporates performance shaping. The Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) framework sought to bridge this gap by extending convex LTI synthesis results such that they could be applied to nonlinear systems. However, recent literature has shown that naive application of the LPV framework can fail to guarantee the desired asymptotic stability guarantees for nonlinear systems. Incremental dissipativity theory has been successfully used in the literature to overcome these issues for Continuous-Time (CT) systems. However, so far no solution has been proposed for output-feedback based incremental control for the Discrete-Time (DT) case. Using recent results on convex analysis of incremental dissipativity for DT nonlinear systems, in this paper, we propose a convex output-feedback controller synthesis method to ensure closed-loop incremental dissipativity of DT nonlinear systems via the LPV framework. The proposed method is applied on a simulation example, demonstrating improved stability and performance properties compared to a standard LPV controller design.
In this paper, we study the statistical difficulty of learning to control linear systems. We focus on two standard benchmarks, the sample complexity of stabilization, and the regret of the online learning of the Linea...

It is recognized that the semantic space of knowledge is a hierarchical concept network. This paper presents theories and algorithms of hierarchical concept classification by quantitative semantic relations via machine learning based on concept algebra. The equivalence between formal concepts are analyzed by an Algorithm of Concept Equivalence Analysis (ACEA), which quantitatively determines the semantic similarity of an arbitrary pair of formal concepts. This leads to the development of the Algorithm of Relational Semantic Classification (ARSC) for hierarchically classify any given concept in the semantic space of knowledge. Experiments applying Algorithms ACEA and ARSC on 20 formal concepts are successfully conducted, which encouragingly demonstrate the deep machine understanding of semantic relations and their quantitative weights beyond human perspectives on knowledge learning and natural language processing.

According to data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of job postings for software engineers has steadily increased over the past few years and is expected to grow by 22% from 2019 to 2029. This paper presents the pedagogical experience within the new Immersive Software engineering (ISE) program concerning mathematical foundations and data analytics topics. These topics were designed to cover essential mathematical concepts such as calculus, linear algebra, probability, and statistics and their integration within data analytic tools and techniques such as time-series forecasting, data cleaning, data visualization, and introduction to pattern recognition. In addition, hands-on projects and real-world applications were incorporated throughout the course to provide students with practical experience in these areas. We reflect on the first delivery of the ISE course, which provided students with a new innovative blended learning environment, and how it will be further developed towards Open Educational Resources (OER) components and refined to respond to the rapidly evolving needs of the software engineering industry.

In this paper, we propose a compression scheme called spatial set-partitioning in hierarchical trees which exploits the spatial and temporal correlations present in sensor data. This scheme allows progressive transmission and provides scalability in adapting to the underlying correlation structure of sensed data. It uses flexible Slepian-Wolf coding based on low density parity-check codes. Two different decoding schemes are proposed for different types of resource constrained sensor nodes. This scheme outperforms known codecs by a large margin of decibel in terms of the signal-to-noise ratio. This scheme has O(n) complexity for encoding and O(nlog(n)) complexity for decoding using message passing, where n is the codeword length. Experiments and simulation results with field data sets demonstrate the viability of our proposed scheme to wireless sensor networks.

Simultaneous multithreading (SMT) attempts to attain higher processor utilization by allowing instructions from multiple independent threads to coexist in a processor and compete for shared resources. Previous studies have shown, however, that its throughput may be limited by the number of threads. A reason is that a fixed thread scheduling policy cannot be optimal for the varying mixes of threads it may face in an SMT processor. Our adaptive dynamic thread scheduling (ADTS) was previously proposed to achieve higher utilization by allowing a detector thread to make use of wasted pipeline slots with nominal hardware and software costs. The detector thread adaptively switches between various fetch policies. Our previous study showed that a single fixed thread scheduling policy presents much room (some 30%) for improvement compared to an oracle-scheduled case. In this paper, we take a closer look at ADTS. We implemented the functional model of the ADTS and its software architecture to evaluate various heuristics for determining a better fetch policy for a next scheduling quantum. We report that performance could be improved by as much as 25%.
