with appropriate accomodation for forward scattering (\focussing e ect") for higher shells, and inclusion of higher cumulants as necessary. The aim of data analysis is to determine the distances, coordination numbers, disorder parameters and types of atoms in the various coordination shells for the \unknown" sample. The extent to which this is possible depends on the nature of the system, the q...

This paper deals with diagonal variable loading recursive least squares (VLRLS) array beamforming based on a generalized sidelobe canceller. In conjunction with a subweight partition approach, the VLRLS-based beamformer demonstrates the advantages of fast convergence speed, insensitivity to dynamic estimate modeling error, less computational load, and more robust to against pointing errors and ...

The kinematics of a robot with many degrees of freedom is a very complex function. Learning this function for a large workspace with a good precision requires a huge number of training samples, i.e., robot movements. In this paper, we introduce the Kinematic Bézier Map (KB-Map), a parameterizable model without the generality of other systems but whose structure readily incorporates some of the ...

In this paper, it is shown that Cauchy’s method can be used effectively to interpolate/extrapolate narrow-band system responses. The given information can either be theoretical datapoints or measured experimental data over a band. For theoretical data extrapolation or interpolation, the sampled values of the function and, optionally, a few of its derivatives have been used to reconstruct the fu...

In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for calculating the exact poles of the admittance matrix of RLCG interconnects. After choosing dominant poles and corresponding residues, each element of the exact admittance matrix is approximated by partial fraction. A procedure to obtain the residues that guarantee the passivity is also provided, based on experimental studies. In the procedure the re...

Color correction involves mapping device RGBs to display counterparts or to corresponding XYZs. A popular methodology is to take an image of a color chart and then solve for the best 33 3 matrix that maps the RGBs to the corresponding known XYZs. However, this approach fails at times when the intensity of the light varies across the chart. This variation needs to be removed before estimating th...

A non-compactly supported cubic radial basis function implementation of the MLPG method for beam problems is presented. The evaluation of the derivatives of the shape functions obtained from the radial basis function interpolation is much simpler than the evaluation of the moving least squares shape function derivatives. The radial basis MLPG yields results as accurate or better than those obta...
