This paper examines the recurrent behaviour of a class of hybrid systems which periodically switch between diierent rst order integrators. The analysis is based on studying the Poincare map of the hybrid system. For switched integrator systems, the Poincare maps are linear mappings thereby allowing easy characterization of the system's stability. Extending these results to more general classes ...

The uses of road map in daily activities are numerous but it is a hassle to construct and update a road map whenever there are changes. research on Automatic Road Extraction (ARE) was explored to solve the difficulties in updating road map. The research started with using Satellite Image (SI), or in short, the ARESI project. A Hybrid Simple Colour Space Segmentation and Edge Detection (Hybrid S...

Hybrid maps are quickly becoming popular in the field of mobile robotics. There is, however, little understanding of the general principles that can be used to combine different maps into a hybrid one, and to make these maps to cooperate. In this note, we propose a definition and a classification of hybrid maps, and discuss the synergies that can make a hybrid map something more than the sum of...

Orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation has attracted substantial attention recently due to its great potential of providing reliable communications in high-mobility scenarios. In this article, we propose a novel hybrid signal detection algorithm for OTFS modulation. Based on the system model, first derive near-optimal <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink...

We have constructed a radiation hybrid (RH) map of chicken chromosome (GGA) 15. This map can be used as a resource to efficiently map genes to this chromosome. The map has been developed using a 6000 rad chicken-hamster whole-genome radiation hybrid panel (ChickRH6). In total, six microsatellite loci, 18 sequence tagged sites (STSs) from BAC end sequences and 11 genes were typed on the panel. T...

A hybrid Bayesian/ frequentist approach is presented for the Simultaneous Localization and Mapping Problem (SLAM). A frequentist approach is proposed for mapping with time varying robotic poses and is generalized to the case when the robotic pose is both time varying and uncertain. The SLAM problem is then solved in two steps: 1) the robot is localized with respect to a sparse set of landmarks ...

We re-examine the basic hybrid control set-up of a continuous plant in a closed feedback loop with a finite state control automaton and an interface consisting of an A/D map and a D/A map. We address the question of how dynamic specifications can be formulated independently of a particular A/D map, and of the effect of refining an A/D map. The main contribution of this paper is that it extends ...
