In this interesting paper Professor Nikiforov reviewed the current state of quickest change detection/isolation problem. In our discussion of his paper we focus on the concerns and the opportunities of the subfield of quickest change detection, or more generally, sequential methodologies, in the modern

A new concept is introduced for the adaptive finite element discretization of partial differential equations that have a sparsely representable solution. Motivated by recent work on compressed sensing, a recursive mesh refinement procedure is presented that uses linear programming to find a good approximation to the sparse solution on a given refinement level. Then only those parts of the mesh ...

Adaptive, locally refined and locally adjusted meshes are preferred over uniform meshes for capturing singular or localised solutions. Roughly speaking, for a given degree of freedom a solution associated with adaptive, locally refined and locally adjusted meshes is more accurate than the solution given by uniform meshes. In this work, we answer the question which meshes are better conditioned....

Laser scan matching with grid-based maps is a promising tool for real-time indoor positioning of mobile Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs). While there are critical implementation problems, such as the ability to estimate the position by sensing the unknown indoor environment with sufficient accuracy and low enough latency for stable vehicle control, further development work is necessary. Unfortun...

Urban wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) are a major vector of highly ecotoxic contaminants emerging concern (CECs) for urban and sub-urban streams. Ecotoxicological risk assessments (ERAs) provide essential information to public environmental authorities. Nevertheless, ERAs mainly performed at very local scale (one or few WWTPs) on pre-selected list CECs. To cope with these limits, the present...

A multiresolution-based adaptation concept is proposed that aims at accelerating Discontinuous Galerkin schemes applied to nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws. Opposite to standard adaptation concepts no error estimates are needed to tag mesh elements for refinement. Instead of this, a multiresolution analysis is performed on a hierarchy of nested grids for the data given on a uniformly refi...
