Critique of Test Methodologies for Biological Agent Detection and Identification Systems for Military and First Responders
نویسنده
چکیده
Currently evaluations of the performance of various BW agent rapid detection or identification systems have primarily focused on defined aerosol samples released under favorable, controlled conditions or controlled samples assayed under laboratory conditions. Although these methods may provide information on the sensitivity, cross-reactivity, and some interferences, they may not provide sufficient information to adequately determine the effectiveness of the technology in the field conditions or when difficult environmental samples are analyzed.

Fault Detection and Isolation of Multi-Agent Systems via Complex Laplacian
This paper studies the problem of fault detection and isolation (FDI) for multi-agent systems (MAS) via complex Laplacian subject to actuator faults. A planar formation of point agents in the plane using simple and linear interaction rules related to complex Laplacian is achieved. The communication network is a directed, and yet connected graph with a fixed topology. The loss of symmetry in the...
