How To Tame Your Sparsity Constraints

چکیده

We show that designing sparse H∞ controllers, in a discrete (LTI) setting, is easy when the controller is assumed to be an FIR filter. In this case, the problem reduces to a static output feedback problem with equality constraints. We show how to obtain an initial guess, for the controller, and then provide a simple algorithm that alternates between two (convex) feasibility programs until converging, when the problem is feasible, to a suboptimal H∞ controller that is automatically stable. As FIR filters contain the information of their impulse response in their coefficients, it is easy to see that our results provide a path of least resistance to designing sparse robust controllers for continuous-time plants, via system identification methods.

Taming math and physics using SymPy

Most people consider math and physics to be scary beasts from which it is best to keep one’s distance. Computers, however, can help us tame the complexity and tedious arithmetic manipulations associated with these subjects. Indeed, math and physics are much more approachable once you have the power of computers on your side. This tutorial serves a dual purpose. On one hand, it serves as a revie...

3D Inversion of Magnetic Data through Wavelet based Regularization Method

This study deals with the 3D recovering of magnetic susceptibility model by incorporating the sparsity-based constraints in the inversion algorithm. For this purpose, the area under prospect was divided into a large number of rectangular prisms in a mesh with unknown susceptibilities. Tikhonov cost functions with two sparsity functions were used to recover the smooth parts as well as the sharp ...

Tame Flows

The tame flows are “nice” flows on “nice” spaces. The nice (tame) sets are the pfaffian sets introduced by Khovanski, and a flow Φ : R×X → X on pfaffian set X is tame if the graph of Φ is a pfaffian subset of R×X×X . Any compact tame set admits plenty tame flows. We prove that the flow determined by the gradient of a generic real analytic function with respect to a generic real analytic metric ...
