Polynomial matrices over fields and rings provide a unifying framework for many control system design problems. These include dynamic compensator design, infinite dimensional systems, controllers for nonlinear systems, and ...

Kohonen's Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) is a neural network architecture that performs nonparametric classification. It classifies observations by comparing them to k templates called Voronoi vectors. The locations ...

Planning the manufacture of machined parts requires a great deal of geometric reasoning. One of the key steps in this task is the derivation of machinable features from a solid model of the part. Regardless of the approach ...

The QRD RLS algorithm is generally recognized as having good numerical properties under finite-precision implementation. Also, it is very suitable for VLSI implementation since it can be easily mapped onto a systolic array. ...

This report demonstrates the use of "multi-level" or "layered" knowledge representation in Artificial Intelligence planning systems. Although multi-level representation schemes have been in use since the earliest days of ...

We consider the two dimensional Analytic Bezout Equation (ABE) and investigate the properties of a particular solution, based on-certain conditions imposed on the convolution kernels. The results permit the reconstruction ...

This report is a compendium of the extended abstracts submitted by participants at the 1990 AAAI Spring Symposium entitled Planning in Uncertain, Unpredictable or Changing environments. The papers concentrate on extending ...

Adaptive proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers are used to control model-following nonlinear systems with second order deminant dynamics. An Adaptive PID-based controller is designed which drives the difference ...

In this thesis we study several properties of Learning Vector Quantization. LVQ is a nonparametric detection scheme proposed in the neural network community by Kohonen. We examine it in detail, both theoretically and ...

Past Planning systems have generally focused on structures capable of working in all domains (domain-independent planning) or on specific heuristics for a particular applied domain (domain-dependent planning). An alternate ...
