Local Uniform Convexity and Kadec-Klee Type Properties in -interpolation spaces II
(Hindawi, 2004-01)
We study local uniform convexity and Kadec-Klee type properties in K-interpolation spaces of Lorentz couples. We show that a wide class of Banach couples of (commutative and) non-commutative Lorentz spaces possess the ...
Nonlinear active vibration absorber design for flexible structures
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Computer Society (IEEE Publishing), 2002)
A new technique, called active vibration clamping absorber (VCA), for vibration suppression in flexible structures is proposed and investigated in this paper. The technique uses a quadratic-modal-positive-position-feedback ...
Local uniform convexity and Kadec-Klee type properties in -interpolation spaces I: General Theory
(Hindawi, 2004-01)
We present a systematic study of the interpolation of local uniform convexity and Kadec-Klee type properties in K-interpolation spaces. Using properties of the K-functional of J.Peetre, our approach is based on a detailed ...
Stochastic target hitting time and the problem of early retirement
(Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, 2004)
We consider a problem of optimal control of a “retirement
investment fund” over a finite time horizon with a target
hitting time criteria. That is, we wish to decide, at each stage, what
percentage of the current retirement ...
Vessel calibre and haemoglobin effects on pulse oximetry
(IOP Publishing, 2009)
Despite its success as a clinical monitoring tool, pulse oximetry may be improved with
respect to the need for empirical calibration and the reports of biases in readings associated
with peripheral vasoconstriction and ...
Hardware Architectures for the Orthogonal and Biorthogonal Wavelet Transform
(Hindawi, 2002-01)
In this note, optimal hardware architectures for the orthogonal and biorthogonal wavelet transforms are presented. The approach used here is not the standard lifting method, but takes advantage of the symmetries inherent ...
Context in 3D planar navigation
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Computer Society (IEEE Publishing), 2001)
One of the most frustrating barriers to the widespread use of 3D visualisation is the additional complexity in navigating 3D data. This paper details a new approach to improving navigation in 3D environments where the ...
Is this a pattern?
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Computer Society (IEEE Publishing), 2002)
In the current climate, pattern is an often-misused buzzword. However, there is no clear definition of pattern-ness, perhaps because patterns do not lend themselves to prescriptive, formal definitions. The authors propose ...
Recall & Precision versus The Bookmaker
(International Conference on Cognitive Science, 2003-07-13)
In the evaluation of models, theories, information retrieval
systems, learning systems and neural networks we must deal
with the ubiquitous contingency matrix of decisions versus
events. In general this is manifested as ...
Diagnostics and two-dimensional simulation of low-frequency inductively coupled plasmas with neutral gas heating and electron heat flares
(American Institute of Physics, 2002)
This article presents the results on the diagnostics and numerical modeling of low-frequency (∼460 KHz) inductively coupled plasmas generated in a cylindrical metal chamber by an external flat spiral coil. Experimental ...
