Regional and State Membership Chairmen

ESSKA Meniscus Consensus Project Chairmen:

The ESSKA MENISCUS CONSENSUS INITIATIVE was initiated by the ESSKA Board after the congress in Amsterdam in 2014. It has been commissioned to two world-renowned experts in the field, Prof. Philippe Beaufils (France) and Prof. Roland Becker (Germany). The goal of the initiative is to find a European consensus on the treatment of meniscus pathologies. Finding a consensus in such a diverse contine...

Set-membership state estimation with fleeting data

This paper deals with offline nonlinear state estimation where measurements are available only when some given equality conditions are satisfied. For this type of problems, which are often met in robot localization when sonar or radar are involved, the data are qualified as fleeting because the measurements are available only at some given unknown dates. In this paper, the first approach able t...

A state-space mixed membership blockmodel for dynamic network tomography

In a dynamic social or biological environment, the interactions between the underlying actors can undergo large and systematic changes. The latent roles or membership of the actors as determined by these dynamic links will also exhibit rich temporal phenomena, assuming a distinct role at one point while leaning more towards a second role at an another point. To capture this dynamic mixed member...

Set-Membership State Estimation with Optimal Bounding Ellipsoids1

| This paper presents a set-membership state estimation scheme for linear systems with unknown but bounded inputs and noise. The approach is to compute 100% conndence regions for the state vector in the form of optimal ellipsoidal sets in the state-space. The proposed algorithm entails greatly reduced computational complexity in comparison to other state estimation schemes (e.g., Schweppe's alg...
