Abstract. In order to improve the steady output of micrgripper, the giant magnetostrictive micrgripper with flexure hinge is taken as the research object . Its structure and working principle are presented .the static performance experiments are done and the better linear work domain is found. On the basis of that the dynamic model of the microgripper is established and the formula of the micro...

Assume submodels are in exponential family: pm(x, z; θm) = exp { θ m ( φm(x)φ Z(z) ) −Am(θm) } for x ∈ X , z ∈ Zm and 0 otherwise Reformulation of Product EM: Aggregate parameters: b = ∑ m bm, bm = φ X m(x) θm E-step: compute expected sufficient statistics μ = E(b,∩mZm) def = Eq(z;b)φ(z) with support ∩mZm M-step: set θm to match moments φ X m(x)μ Exponential family formulation Two sources of in...

Robustified rank tests, applying a robust scale estimator, are investigated for reliable and fast shift detection in time series. The tests show good power for sufficiently large shifts, low false detection rates for Gaussian noise and high robustness against outliers. Wilcoxon scores in combination with a robust and efficient scale estimator achieve good performance in many situations.

We study Lorentzian wormholes in the ghost-free bigravity theory described by two metrics, g and f. Wormholes can exist if only the null energy condition is violated, which happens naturally in the bigravity theory since the graviton energy-momentum tensors do not apriori fulfill any energy conditions. As a result, the field equations admit solutions describing wormholes whose throat size is ty...

We define pure intuitionistic differential proof nets, extending Ehrhard and Regnier’s differential interaction nets with the exponential box of Linear Logic. Normalization of the exponential reduction and confluence of the full one is proved. These results are directed and adjusted to give a translation of Boudol’s untyped λ-calculus with resources extended with a linear-non linear reduction à...

A central problem in time series analysis is prediction of a future observation. The theory of optimal linear prediction has been well understood since the seminal work of A. Kolmogorov and N. Wiener during World War II. A simplifying assumption is to assume that one-step-ahead prediction is carried out based on observing the infinite past of the time series. In practice, however, only a finite...

This paper analyzes the feasibility of quantifying design tradeoffs on the transient step response of a class of nonlinear systems. This feasibility analysis builds on available tools for the characterization of performance limitations in the optimal quadratic response of the class of strict feedback nonlinear systems. We present results that show that, as in linear systems, for certain classes...

In this work, we use the generalized exponential function in the fractional-order domain to define generalized cosine and sine functions. We then re-visit some important trigonometric identities and generalize them from the narrow integer-order subset to the more general fractional-order domain. It is clearly shown that trigonometric functions and trigonometric identities in the transient-time ...

A design strategy for minimizing a feedback amplifier’s step-response settling time is introduced. Central to this approach is the clear identification of the independent design parameters characterizing the amplifier and the introduction of a figure of merit for assessing the settling performance of an amplifier that is independent of power, supply voltage and capacitive loading. With this app...
