In this paper, low-complexity distributed fusion filtering algorithm for mixed continuous-discrete multisensory dynamic systems is proposed. To implement the algorithm a new recursive equations for local cross-covariances are derived. To achieve an effective fusion filtering the covariance intersection (CI) algorithm is used. The CI algorithm is useful due to its low-computational complexity fo...

We give a simpler proof of the result of Boros and Füredi that for any finite set of points in the plane in general position there is a point lying in 2/9 of all the triangles determined by these points. Introduction Every set P of n points in R in general position determines ( n d+1 ) d-simplices. Let p be another point in R. Let C(P, p) be the number of the simplices containing p. Boros and F...

Four different vector fields on (x,y)-plane A vector field on a sphere ♣ Curves. A smooth curve is a continuous curve (no gaps or discontinuities) with no corners (no abrupt changes in slope at a point such as you would get from the intersection of two lines). A continuous and differentiable produces a smooth function. A path C is called closed if its initial and final points are the same point...

If φ : L → L′ is a bijection from the set of lines of a linear space (P,L) onto the set of lines of a linear space (P ′,L′) (dim (P,L), dim (P ′,L′) ≥ 3), such that intersecting lines go over to intersecting lines in both directions, then φ is arising from a collineation of (P,L) onto (P ′,L′) or a collineation of (P,L) onto the dual linear space of (P ′,L′). However, the second possibility can...

A method of representing transformations of a finite set pictorially is described. These pictures of a function are used to count certain idempotent transformations, and interesting formulae for the Fibonacci numbers are obtained. No part of any string extends beyond the region ° : : ; z ::; 1, and if two strings intersect then they join together, from the point of intersection, to meet the sam...

Uncontrolled intersections are the intersections where there are no external signs or signals to control the movement of vehicles. In mixed traffic conditions priority rules are often violated by the road users. In All-way-stop-controlled intersections (AWSC), the vehicle should stop themselves before they enter the intersection and should check whether any vehicles are present in the other app...

Archimedes computed the center of mass of several regions and bodies [Dijksterhuis], and this fundamental physical notion may very well be due to him. He based his investigations of this concept on the notion of moment as it is used in his Law of the Lever. A hyperbolic version of this law was formulated in the nineteenth century leading to the notion of a hyperbolic center of mass of two point...

Here it is shown that a set in Euclidean space can be represented as the intersection of a descending sequence of sets affinely equivalent to a given convex body, or arbitrarily closely approximated from above by sets affinely equivalent to the body, if and only if it is affinely equivalent to an affine retract of the body. For the special case in which the body is a simplex, the statement conc...

In this paper, we introduce a new concept of volumes difference function of the projection and intersection bodies. Following this, we establish the Minkowski and Brunn-Minkowski inequalities for volumes difference function of the projection and intersection bodies.

Around the turn of the last century, many open-minded astronomers believed they had seen what they called canali (Italian for canals or channels) on Mars. The claims were as controversial as exciting. Planets appeared as tiny spheres in the telescopes of that time, leaving much to interpretation. Photographic technology had not yet advanced to allow for clear images of the shimmering little dis...
