An asymptotically stable direct adaptive fuzzy PI sliding modecontroller is proposed for a class of nonlinear uncertain systems. In contrast toother existing approaches of handling disturbances, the proposed approachdoes not require this bound to be known, only requiring that it exists.Moreover, a PI control structure is used to attenuate chattering. The approachis applied to stabilize an open-...

convergence hypothesis is one of the results of neoclassical growth model, which has been examined recently. this hypothesis has two forms of absolute and conditional beta-convergence and implies that regions with lower per capita output have higher per capita growth rates. since there is no data for regional gdp in iran, there has been n study to test convergence hypothesis in iran. our main c...

This paper focuses on the relationships between stratified $L$-conver-gence spaces, stratified strong $L$-convergence spaces and stratifiedlevelwise  $L$-convergence spaces. It has been known that: (1) astratified $L$-convergence space is precisely a left-continuousstratified levelwise $L$-convergence space; and (2) a  stratifiedstrong $L$-convergence space is naturally a stratified $L$-converg...

Minimization problems in l for Tikhonov functionals with sparsity constraints are considered. Sparsity of the solution is ensured by a weighted l penalty term. The necessary and sufficient condition for optimality is shown to be slantly differentiable (Newton differentiable), hence a semismooth Newton method is applicable. Local superlinear convergence of this method is proved. Numerical exampl...

We generalize the notion of Bregman distance using concepts from abstract convexity in order to derive convergence rates for Tikhonov regularization with non-convex regularization terms. In particular, we study the non-convex regularization of linear operator equations on Hilbert spaces, showing that the conditions required for the application of the convergence rates results are strongly relat...

a numerical method for solving nonlinear fredholm-volterra integral equations of general type is presented. this method is based on replacement of unknown function by truncated series of well known chebyshev expansion of functions. the quadrature formulas which we use to calculate integral terms have been imated by fast fourier transform (fft). this is a grate advantage of this method which has...

abstract meningeal melanocytoma is a primary melanocytic neoplasm with certain mr and immunohistochemical characteristics worthy to note. in a 38-year-old man with a complaint of headache for a couple of years and recently added nausea, vomiting, diplopia, progressive visual blurring and hearing loss, magnetic resonance imaging (mri) was remarkable for t1 shortening of leptomeninges and certain...
