This paper deals with the H∞ filtering problem for uncertain networked control systems. In the study, network-induced delays, limited communication capacity due to signal quantization and packet dropout are all taken into consideration. The finite distributed delays with probability of occurrence in a random way is introduced in the network.The packet dropout is described by a Bernoulli process...

This paper is concerned with the event-triggered distributed H∞ state estimation problem for a class of discrete-time stochastic nonlinear systems with packet dropouts in a sensor network. An event-triggered communication mechanism is adopted over the sensor network with hope to reduce the communication burden and the energy consumption, where the measurements on each sensor are transmitted onl...

Interactive computing systems frequently use pointing as an input modality, while also supporting other forms of input. We focus on pointing and investigate the effects of variations, i.e. jitter, in the input device latency, as well as dropouts, on 2D pointing speed and accuracy. First, we characterize the latency, latency jitter, and dropouts in several common input technologies. Then we pres...

We address the peak covariance stability of time-varying Kalman filter with possible packet losses in transmitting measurement outputs to the filter via a packet-based network. The packet losses are assumed to be bounded and driven by a finite-state Markov process. It is shown that if the observability index of the discrete-time linear timeinvariant(LTI) system under investigation is one, the K...

Psychological group treatments, such as behavioral or cognitive-behavioral therapy, are generally effective interventions for social phobia. However, a substantial number of individuals discontinue these treatments prematurely. Participant attrition can threaten the validity of treatment outcome studies if attrition during therapy does not occur randomly. In order to examine this issue, we stud...
