The thesis that noisy identi"cation has close ties to the study of the singular-value decomposition of perturbed matrices is investigated. In particular by assuming an upper bound on the norm of the perturbation, one can obtain a convex parametrization of an uncertain family of systems which contains the system generating the data. In this approach, the second-smallest singular value p * of an ...

Abstract Measuring players’ importance in team sports to help coaches and staff with the aim of winning game is gaining relevance, mainly because advent new data advanced technologies. In this paper we evaluate each player’s - for first time basketball as his/her average marginal contribution utility an ordered subset players, through a generalized version Shapley value, where value assumed by ...

Digital pulse oximetry is a useful non-invasive tool to monitor oxygen saturation. However, it has its own limitation and cannot reflect the true arterial oxygen saturation in case of unstable haemoglobin. We report a Chinese girl having unstable haemoglobin presenting with incidental finding of low oxygen saturation measured by pulse oximetry, its value in identifying affected family members a...
