We discuss the calculation of discriminating kernel for the discrete-time dynamic game and continuous-time dynamic game (namely differential game) using the viability kernel and reachable set. For the discrete-time dynamic game, we give an approximation of the viability kernel by the maximal reachable set. Then, based on the relationship between viability and discriminating kernels, we propose ...

This paper proposes a sensor additive switching watermark methodology for detecting physical faults and replay attacks, then identifying the occurring threat type: either fault or attack. The includes generator in plant side remover control monitoring side. protocols of their common seeds are specifically designed, guaranteeing switch synchronization both nominal cases, allowing asynchronizatio...

Emerging research has provided support for the use of the Kessler Psychological Distress Scales in developing countries; however, this research has yet to be extended to southern Africa. This study sought to evaluate the performance of the Kessler scales in screening for depression and anxiety disorders in the South African population. The scales along with the Composite International Diagnosti...

Perceptual functions change with age, particularly motion perception. With regard to healthy aging, previous studies mostly measured motion coherence thresholds for coarse motion direction discrimination along cardinal axes of motion. Here, we investigated age-related changes in the ability to discriminate between small angular differences in motion directions, which allows for a more specific ...

PURPOSE To determine whether measurement of ganglion cell complex (GCC) thickness over a wide area (8-mm diameter) can improve the glaucoma-discriminating ability of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) compared to that in the standard macular area (6-mm diameter). METHODS Ninety-three subjects were enrolled, including 46 healthy eyes of 46 volunteers and 47 eyes of 47 glauco...

BACKGROUND Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) is a reliable tool for discriminating between subjects with and without vertebral deformities in postmenopausal osteoporosis. Less is known about osteoporosis caused by inflammatory diseases or corticosteroid use. OBJECTIVES (1). To compare in patients with rheumatoid arthritis the ability of QUS and dual energy x ray absorptiometry (DXA) to discrimina...

We conducted an initial study on tactile sensory characteristics of the lips by applying electrotactile array stimulation on the center surfaces of the upper and lower lips. We performed experiments of threshold measurement and rating of two-line separation to evaluate the tactile sensitivity and spatial discriminating ability of the lips, respectively. Three stimulator arrays of different size...

What properties about the internals of a program explain the possible di↵erences in its overall running time for di↵erent inputs? In this paper, we propose a formal framework for considering this question we dub trace-set discrimination. We show that even though the algorithmic problem of computing maximum likelihood discriminants is NP-hard, approaches based on integer linear programming (ILP)...

Here we continue the study of discriminating groups as introduced by Baumslag, Myasnikov and Remeslennikov in [7]. First we give examples of finitely generated groups which are discriminating but not trivially discriminating, in the sense that they do not embed their direct squares, and then we show how to generalize these examples. In the opposite direction we show that if F is a non-abelian f...
