For electrical railways, contact wires are used to ensure stable and continuous power supply to trains operating on the infrastructure. One crucial design parameter used to control the catenary design is the vertical ...

The growth and potential intercalation of Fe on naturally grown MoS$_{2}$ has been studied using a number of surface techniques. An initial sample characterization revealed that samples extracted from the natural MoS$_{2}$ ...

We propose a novel Bayesian approach that robustifies genomic modeling by leveraging expert knowledge (EK) through prior distributions. The central component is the hierarchical decomposition of phenotypic variation into ...

This paper addresses the problem of localization, which is inherently non-convex and non-smooth in a federated setting where the data is distributed across a multitude of devices. Due to the decentralized nature of federated ...

Denne oppgaven presenterer en metode for a kontrollere en fjernstyrt undervannsbåt (ROV) til å autonomt traversere og inspisere en not for bruk i fiskeoppdrett. Metoden er basert på Doppler velocity log- (DVL) målinger, ...

We develop a unified and easy to use framework to study robust fully discrete numerical methods for nonlinear degenerate diffusion equations $\partial_t u-\mathfrak{L}[\varphi(u)]=f(x,t)$ in $\mathbb{R}^N\times(0,T),$ where ...

In many industrial applications, obtaining labeled observations is not straightforward as it often requires the intervention of human experts or the use of expensive testing equipment. In these circumstances, active learning ...

The design of robust orbitally stabilizing feedback is considered. From a known orbitally stabilizing controller for a nominal, disturbance-free system, a robustifying feedback extension is designed utilizing the sliding-mode ...

Navigation with a Phased Array Radio System (PARS) is prone to performance degradation due to radio wave reflections of the directed communication beam on reflective surfaces. This work presents a navigation algorithm, ...

This paper presents different strategies for handling disruptions in fleet deployment in roll-on roll-off liner shipping, which basically consists of assigning a fleet of vessels to predefined voyages at minimum cost. A ...
