چکیده

We study propagation of the RegularGcc global constraint. This ensures that each row of a matrix of decision variables satisfies a Regular constraint, and each column satisfies a Gcc constraint. On the negative side, we prove that propagation is NP-hard even under some strong restrictions (e.g. just 3 values, just 4 states in the automaton, or just 5 columns to the matrix). On the positive side, we identify two cases where propagation is fixed parameter tractable. In addition, we show how to improve propagation over a simple decomposition into separate Regular and Gcc constraints by identifying some necessary but insufficient conditions for a solution. We enforce these conditions with some additional weighted row automata. Experimental results demonstrate the potential of these methods on some standard benchmark problems.

On the optimal correction of inconsistent matrix equations $AX = B$ and $XC = D$ with orthogonal constraint

This work focuses on the correction of both the coecient and the right hand side matrices of the inconsistent matrix equations $AX = B$ and $XC = D$ with orthogonal constraint. By optimal correction approach, a general representation of the orthogonal solution is obtained. This method is tested on two examples to show that the optimal correction is eective and highly accurate.

An iterative method for the Hermitian-generalized Hamiltonian solutions to the inverse problem AX=B with a submatrix constraint

In this paper, an iterative method is proposed for solving the matrix inverse problem $AX=B$ for Hermitian-generalized Hamiltonian matrices with a submatrix constraint. By this iterative method, for any initial matrix $A_0$, a solution $A^*$ can be obtained in finite iteration steps in the absence of roundoff errors, and the solution with least norm can be obtained by choosing a special kind of...

A Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) Approach to Robust Model Predictive Control (RMPC) Design in Nonlinear Uncertain Systems Subjected to Control Input Constraint

In this paper, a robust model predictive control (MPC) algorithm is addressed for nonlinear uncertain systems in presence of the control input constraint. For achieving this goal, firstly, the additive and polytopic uncertainties are formulated in the nonlinear uncertain systems. Then, the control policy can be demonstrated as a state feedback control law in order to minimize a given cost funct...

The Sine-Cosine Wavelet and Its Application in the Optimal Control of Nonlinear Systems with Constraint

In this paper, an optimal control of quadratic performance index with nonlinear constrained is presented. The sine-cosine wavelet operational matrix of integration and product matrix are introduced and applied to reduce nonlinear differential equations to the nonlinear algebraic equations. Then, the Newton-Raphson method is used for solving these sets of algebraic equations. To present ability ...
