An adaptive input-output linearization method for general nonlinear systems is developed without using states of the system. Another key feature of this structure is the fact that, it does not need model of the system. In this scheme, neurolinearizer has few weights, so it is practical in adaptive situations.  Online training of neuroline...

The Standard for Efficient Cryptography (SEC) 1, Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), Version 1.0 [23] is a freely available specification of selected ECC techniques. Because of many developments in ECC since its publication in September, 2000, SEC1 would benefit from a revision. This document summarizes Certicom’s proposed modifications to SEC 1, v. 1.0. 1 Schedule and Version Numbering The revi...

These notes are an introduction to the theory of algebraic varieties. In contrast to most such accounts they study abstract algebraic varieties, and not just subvarieties of affine and projective space. This approach leads more naturally into scheme theory. v2.01 (August 24, 1996). First version on the web. v3.01 (June 13, 1998). v4.00 (October 30, 2003). Fixed errors; many minor revisions; add...

This paper considers the problem of adaptive output feedback tracking control for a class of nonstrict-feedback nonlinear systems with unknown time-varying delays and unknown backlash-like hysteresis. Fuzzy logic systems are used to estimate the unknown nonlinear functions. Based on the Lyapunov–Krasovskii method, the control scheme is constructed by using the backstepping and adaptive techniqu...

Abstract This paper presents a new multiscale method for analysing water pollutant data located in river networks. The main idea of the proposed is to adapt conventional lifting scheme, reflecting characteristics streamflow network domain. Due complexity domain structure, it difficult apply scheme directly. To solve this problem, we propose algorithm that incorporates flow-adaptive neighbourhoo...

An adaptive scheme for software fault-tolerance is evaluated from the point of view of performability, comparing it with previously published analyses of the more popular schemes, recovery blocks and multiple version programming. In the case considered, this adaptive scheme, "Self-Configuring Optimistic Programming" (SCOP), is equivalent to N-version programming in terms of the probability of d...

Screening and diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus: critical appraisal of the new International Association of Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Group recommendations on a national level. In the print version of the article listed above, the numbering of references is incorrect. In the References section, reference 13 should replace reference 12, and references 14 and 15 should be numbered 13 a...

We proposed the first threshold GQ signature scheme. The scheme is unforgeable and robust against any adaptive adversary if the base GQ signature scheme is unforgeable under the chosen message attack and computing the discrete logarithm modulo a safe prime is hard. Our scheme achieve optimal resilience, that is, the adversary can corrupt up to a half of the players. As an extension of our work,...

This paper presents an adaptive digital resolution improvement method for extrapolating and recursive analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The presented adaptively enhanced ADC (AE-ADC) digitally estimates the digital equivalent of the input signal by utilizing an adaptive digital filter (ADF). The least mean squares (LMS) algorithm also determines the coefficients of the ADF block. In this sch...
