Successful satellite operations often depend on the ability to precisely determine the satellite’s position throughout it’s operational lifetime. Often, simplified models are used to reduce the computational complexity when producing an orbit determination solution. One example is the use of lower order gravitational terms when computing the state transition matrix. The US Naval Research Labora...

We give a polynomial-time algorithm for learning latent-state linear dynamical systems without system identification, and without assumptions on the spectral radius of the system’s transition matrix. The algorithm extends the recently introduced technique of spectral filtering, previously applied only to systems with a symmetric transition matrix, using a novel convex relaxation to allow for th...

the problem of pole assignment, also known as an eigenvalue assignment, in linear discrete-time periodic systems in discs was solved by a novel method which employs elementary similarity operations. the former methods tried to assign the points inside the unit circle while preserving the stability of the discrete time periodic system. nevertheless, now we can obtain the location of eigenvalues ...

one of the basic subjects in political sociology of every society is the nature of stat in that society. the states have different economical social culture and political nature. the essay studies the political nature of the state in studies the political nature of the state in iran during pahlavi period , from the view point of transition to democracy. the aim of study the political nature of ...

for an m-state homogeneous irreducible Markov chain with transition probability matrix Qm×m is known, but the chain requires updating by altering some of its transition probabilities or by adding or deleting some states. Suppose that the updated transition probability matrix Pn×n is also irreducible. The updating problem is to compute the updated stationary distribution π = (π1, π2, . . . , πn)...

the present paper deals with development of a simulation model for the performance evaluation of feed water system of a thermal power plant using markov birth-death process and probabilistic approach. in present paper, the feed water system consists of four subsystems. after drawing transition diagram for feed water system, differential equations are developed and then solved recursively using ...

The question of the local stability of the ~replica-symmetric! amorphous solid state is addressed for a class of systems undergoing a continuous liquid to amorphous-solid phase transition driven by the effect of random constraints. The Hessian matrix, associated with infinitesimal fluctuations around the stationary point corresponding to the amorphous solid state, is obtained. The eigenvalues o...
