Abstract: In this paper we have developed a family of shape measures. All the measures from the family evaluate the degree to which a shape looks like a predefined convex polygon. A quite new approach ...

Abstract: This article proposes a prescribed-time distributed convex polygon entrapping control protocol based on relative measurements for leader-follower-constructed autonomous aerial vehicles (AAVs ...

Abstract: Active noise control (ANC) in the wave-domain has been widely used to perform noise cancellation in large spatial areas with time-varying acoustic characteristics. Most of existing works on ...

Executive salaries are skyrocketing at the nonprofit that runs the 9/11 Memorial and Museum — even as it continues to hemorrhage money — infuriating families of ...

Abstract: We formulate adaptation of antenna tilt angle as a utility fair optimization task. This optimization problem is nonconvex, but in this paper we show that, under reasonable conditions, it can ...

In this video, a versatile polygon cutting jig is created, allowing users to cut pentagons, hexagons, octagons, and even heptagons using one tool. Tropical Storm Erin forms, could become Atlantic's ...

Amazon.com Inc. is buying the wearable electronics startup Bee, officially known as Bluush Inc., for an undisclosed price, as part of a strategy to take the lead in more personal artificial ...

Abstract: We present an optimization-based framework for analysis and control of linear parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) with spatially varying coefficients without discretization or ...

Abstract: A key challenge in wireless cognitive radio networks is to maximize the total throughput also known as the sum rates of all the users while avoiding the interference of unlicensed band ...
