Delay‐dependent robust stability and stabilization for uncertain discrete singular systems with delays

The robust stability and robust stabilization for time‐delay discrete singular systems with parameter uncertainties is discussed. A delay‐dependent linear matrix inequality (LMI) condition for the time‐delay discrete systems to be nonsingular and stable is given. Based on this condition and the restricted system equivalent transformation, the delay‐dependent LMI condition is proposed for the time‐delay discrete singular systems to be admissible. With this condition, the problems of robust stability and robust stabilization are solved, and the delay‐dependent LMI conditions are obtained. Numerical examples illustrate the effectiveness of the method given in the paper. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley and Sons Asia Pte Ltd and Chinese Automatic Control Society     

Simple LMI based learning control design

In this note, a simple linear matrix inequality (LMI) design method is proposed for iterative learning control (ILC). The design can ensure a monotonic error decay in 2‐norm. Experimental results on a SCARA robot shows that the design can achieve nearly perfect tracking. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley and Sons Asia Pte Ltd and Chinese Automatic Control Society     

Stabilizing adaptive controller for uncertain dynamical systems: An LMI approach

Adaptive stabilization of a class of linear systems with matched and unmatched uncertainties is considered in this paper. The proposed controller indeed stabilizes the uncertain system for any positive values of its non-adaptive gain that may be tuned to enhance dynamic response of system. The performance of uncertain system along with the Algebraic Riccati Equation that arises from the adaptive stabilizing controller is now formulated as a multi-objective Linear Matrix Inequality optimization problem. The decay rate and a factor governing the ultimate bound of the system states are considered to characterize the closed loop system performance. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed controller is illustrated via stabilizing a mass-spring system. Recommended by Editorial Board member Gang Tao under the direction of Editor Young Il Lee.

Stability analysis and controller design for a class of delay systems via observer based on network

This paper focuses on the problem of stability analysis and controller design for a class of delay systems based on networked control systems. By introducing some free matrix variables, some criteria for stability analysis and observer-based control law design can be obtained by the solving of linear matrix inequalities. A numerical example is also offered to prove the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

A new delay system approach to network-based control

This paper presents a new delay system approach to network-based control. This approach is based on a new time-delay model proposed recently, which contains multiple successive delay components in the state. Firstly, new results on stability and H_∞ performance are proposed for systems with two successive delay components, by exploiting a new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and by making use of novel techniques for time-delay systems. An illustrative example is provided to show the advantage of these results. The second part of this paper utilizes the new model to investigate the problem of network-based control, which has emerged as a topic of significant interest in the control community. A sampled-data networked control system with simultaneous consideration of network induced delays, data packet dropouts and measurement quantization is modeled as a nonlinear time-delay system with two successive delay components in the state and, the problem of network-based H_∞ control is solved accordingly. Illustrative examples are provided to show the advantage and applicability of the developed results for network-based controller design.     

Stability analysis of neutral systems with distributed delays

The stability of neutral systems with distributed delays is investigated in this paper. A modified Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is constructed to study this class of systems. The proposed stability criterion is discrete-, distributed- and neutral-delay-dependent. In addition, by this method one can study the case when the coefficient matrix of the neutral delay term is time-varying uncertain. The reduced conservatism is illustrated in a numerical example.     

基于Mumford-Shah模型和G空间的图像结构纹理分解

构造了一个变分问题来实现图像的纹理结构分解.其中结构成分用分段光滑的函数(即Mumford-Shah模型)刻画,纹理部分用振荡函数(G空间)来描述.由于Mumford-Shah模型将结构成分显式地描述为分段光滑函数,在非结构边缘点处的梯度采用L2范数约束,故相对于全变差(Total variation,TV,梯度的L1范数)的分解方式,很好地克服TV带来的阶梯效应;G空间本身定义的纹理函数的振荡特性保证了分解的结构成分中含有更少的纹理信息.实验表明,无论相对于经典的TV-L2分解还是TV-G分解,本文方法均体现出了很好的分解性能.     

Network Intrusion Detection in Internet of Blended Environment Using Ensemble of Heterogeneous Autoencoders (E-HAE)

Contemporary attackers, mainly motivated by financial gain, consistently devise sophisticated penetration techniques to access important information or data. The growing use of Internet of Things (IoT) technology in the contemporary convergence environment to connect to corporate networks and cloud-based applications only worsens this situation, as it facilitates multiple new attack vectors to emerge effortlessly. As such, existing intrusion detection systems suffer from performance degradation mainly because of insufficient considerations and poorly modeled detection systems. To address this problem, we designed a blended threat detection approach, considering the possible impact and dimensionality of new attack surfaces due to the aforementioned convergence. We collectively refer to the convergence of different technology sectors as the internet of blended environment. The proposed approach encompasses an ensemble of heterogeneous probabilistic autoencoders that leverage the corresponding advantages of a convolutional variational autoencoder and long short-term memory variational autoencoder. An extensive experimental analysis conducted on the TON_IoT dataset demonstrated 96.02% detection accuracy. Furthermore, performance of the proposed approach was compared with various single model (autoencoder)-based network intrusion detection approaches: autoencoder, variational autoencoder, convolutional variational autoencoder, and long short-term memory variational autoencoder. The proposed model outperformed all compared models, demonstrating F1-score improvements of 4.99%, 2.25%, 1.92%, and 3.69%, respectively.     

Automated construction of Wi-Fi-based indoor logical location predictor using crowd-sourced photos with Wi-Fi signals

Owing to the recent proliferation of smartphones and the SNS, a large number of images taken by smartphones at various places have been uploaded to SNSs. In addition, smartphones are equipped with various sensors such as Wi-Fi modules that enable us to generate an image associated with the sensory information that represents the context in which the image was captured. This study demonstrates the benefits of images associated with Wi-Fi signals in the automated construction of a Wi-Fi-based indoor logical location classifier that predicts a semantic location label of a user’s position for shopping complexes. In this study, a logical location class refers to the store class label in a shopping complex, such as Starbucks and H&M. Given a collection of images associated with Wi-Fi signals taken at a shopping complex and the complex’s floor plan, the proposed method first estimates the store label at which an image was taken by analyzing the image and crawled online images of branch stores. Then, the 2D coordinates of the images taken at branch stores on the floor coordinate system can be estimated using the floor plan. Subsequently, by using the Wi-Fi signals of the branch store images and their estimated 2D coordinates, we construct a transformation function that maps Wi-Fi signals onto the 2D coordinates, and we adopt this function to predict an indoor location class of an observed Wi-Fi scan from a smartphone possessed by an end user. The proposed transformation function comprises an ensemble of sub-functions designed based on CVAEs. Finally, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method for three actual shopping complexes.
