In this paper we study the optimization of the discrete-time stochastic linear-quadratic (LQ) control problem with conic control constraints on an infinite horizon, considering multiplicative noises. Stochastic control systems can be formulated as Ma...
We propose a fast document image thresholding method (FADIT) and evaluations of the two classic methods for demonstrating the effectiveness of FADIT. We put forward two assumptions: (1) the probability of the occurrence of grayscale text and backgrou...
This paper is concerned with Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA)-based systems for energy-efficient high-throughput string comparison. Modern applications which involve comparisons across large data sets—such as large sequence sets in molecul...
Among the most important characteristics of autonomous vehicles are the safety and robustness in various traffic situations and road conditions. In this paper, we focus on the development and analysis of the extended version of the canonical proporti...
In recent decades, workshop scheduling has excessively focused on time-related indicators, while ignoring environmental metrics. With the advent of sustainable manufacturing, the energy-aware scheduling problem has been attracting more and more atten...
The tolerance mechanism based on dark channel prior (DCP) of a single image dehazing algorithm is less effective when there are large areas of the bright region in the hazy image because it cannot obtain the tolerance adaptively according to the char...
Flying robots have gained great interest because of their numerous applications. For this reason, the control of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is one of the most important challenges in mobile robotics. These kinds of robots are commonly controlled...
Photomatrix therapeutic systems (PMTS) are widely used for the tasks of preventive, stimulating and rehabilitation medicine. They consist of low-intensity light-emitting diodes (LEDs) having the quasi-monochromatic irradiation properties. Depending o...
In the conversion problem, wealth has to be distributed between two assets with the objective to maximize the wealth at the end of the investment horizon. The bi-directional preemptive conversion problem with a constant price interval is the only pro...
The development of the sharing economy has made carsharing the main future development model of car rental. Carsharing network investment is enormous, but the resource allocation is limited. Therefore, the reasonable location of the carsharing statio...
