Multihypothesis motion-compensating predictors combine several motion-compensated signals to predict the current frame signal. More than one motion-compensated signal, or hypothesis, is selected for transmission. Long-term memory motion-compensated prediction is a further concept for efficient video compression and is an example for forward-adaptive hypothesis switching. One motion-compensated ...

We articulate an adaptive and reference-free framework based on the principle of random switching to detect and control unstable steady states in high-dimensional nonlinear dynamical systems, without requiring any a priori information about the system or about the target steady state. Starting from an arbitrary initial condition, a proper control signal finds the nearest unstable steady state a...

This paper considers stochastic consensus problems over lossy wireless networks. We first propose a measurement model with a random link gain, additive noise, and Markovian lossy signal reception, which captures uncertain operational conditions of practical networks. For consensus seeking, we apply stochastic approximation and derive a Markovian mode dependent recursive algorithm. Mean square a...

This paper deals with the parameter estimation problem of the Single-Input-SingleOutput (SISO) switched Hammerstein system. Suppose that the switching law is arbitrary but can be observed online. All subsystems are parameterized and the Recursive Least Squares (RLS) algorithm is applied to estimate their parameters. To overcome the difficulty caused by coupling of data from different subsystems...

This paper presents a quantum algorithm for finding minimal ESCT (Exclusive-or Sum of Complex Terms) or ESOP (Exclusive-or Sum Of Products) expressions for any arbitrary incompletely specified switching function. The proposed algorithm takes advantage of the inherent massive parallelism of quantum circuits in order to achieve better complexity than the conventional ones. The proposed xor expres...

Over the last few years we have witnessed a wide deployment of point-to-point wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) transmission technology in the Internet infrastructure. The corresponding massive increase in network bandwidth due to WDM has heightened the need for faster switching at the core of the network. At the same time, there has been a growing effort to enhance the Internet Protocol (...

This paper derives the second-order statistics of SC (selection combining) macrodiversity operating over the Gamma shadowed Nakagami-m fading channels. Macrodiversity system of SC type consists of two microdiversity systems and selection (switching) is based on their output signal power values. Each microdiversity system is of MRC (maximal ratio combining) type with arbitrary number of branches...

One of the best vibration control methods using smart actuators are semi-active approaches which are as strong as active methods and need no external energy supply such as passive ones. Compared with piezoelectric-based, magnetostrictive-based control methods have higher coupling efficiency, higher Curie temperature, higher flexibility to be integrated with curved structures and no depolarizati...
