The existing approaches used to identify the relevant pathways in a given condition do not consider a number of important biological factors such as magnitude of each gene’s expression change, their position and interactions in the given pathways, etc. Recently, an impact analysis approach was proposed that considers these crucial biological factors to analyze regulatory pathways at systems bio...

Multiple antenna transmission and reception have been shown to significantly increase the achievable data rates of wireless systems. However, most of the existing analysis assumes perfect or no channel information at the receiver and transmitter. The performance gap between these extreme channel assumptions is large and most practical systems lie in between. Therefore, it is important to analyz...

in this paper, a novel method is developed for designing the output feedback controller for static synchronous series compensator (sssc). in the proposed method, the problem of selecting the output feedback gains for the sssc controllers is changed into an optimization problem with a time domain-based objective function.then, it is solved by using the particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithm...

A robust state feedback design subject to placement of the closed loop eigenvalues in a prescribed region of unit circle is presented. Quantitative measures of robustness and disturbance rejection are investigated. A stochastic optimization algorithm is used to effect trade-off between the free design parameters and to accomplish all the design criteria. A numerical example is given to illustra...
