This paper addresses the infinite-horizon optimal control problem for max-plus linear systems where the considered objective function is a sum of discounted stage costs over an infinite horizon. The minimization problem of the cost function is equivalently transformed into a maximization problem of a reward function. The resulting optimal...

The task of network traffic monitoring has evolved drastically with the ever-increasing amount of data flowing in large scale networks. The automated analysis of this tremendous source of information often comes with using simpler models on aggregated data (e.g. IP flow records) due to time and space constraints. A step towards utilizing IP flow...

Knowledge of how human operators’ tracking behavior is affected by simulator motion cueing settings is of great value for flight simulator design and fidelity evaluations. Previous studies have revealed strong effects of degraded motion cueing quality on human operator control behavior in compensatory tracking, but the presented visual cues in...

Simulations of a stiff rotor configuration of the DTU 10MW Reference Wind Turbine are performed in order to assess the impact of prescribed flap motion on the aerodynamic loads on a blade sectional and rotor integral level. Results of the engineering models used by DTU (HAWC2), TUDelft (Bladed) and NTUA (hGAST) are compared to the CFD...

Obstacle detection by monocular vision is challenging because a single camera does not provide a direct measure for absolute distances to objects. A self-supervised learning approach is proposed that combines a camera and a very small short-range proximity sensor to find the relation between the appearance of objects in camera images and their...

Goal-finding in an unknown maze is a challenging problem for a Reinforcement Learning agent, because the corresponding state space can be large if not intractable, and the agent does not usually have a model of the environment. Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning has been shown in the past to improve tractability and learning time of complex...

In order to handle the massive raw data generated by next generation sequencing (NGS) platforms, GPUs are widely used by many genetic analysis tools to speed up the used algorithms. In this paper, we use GPUs to accelerate the pair-HMMs forward algorithm, which is used to calculate the overall alignment probability in many genomics analysis...

Non-isothermal multiphase compositional simulation is based on the solution of governing equations describing mass and energy transfer in the subsurface. The solution strategy requires a linearization of strongly nonlinear governing equations describing the process. Usually, a Newton-based method is used for the linearization that demands an...

A major challenge for the industrial deployment of a CO<sub>2</sub> emission reduction methodology is to reduce the overall cost and the integration of all the nodes in the supply chain for CO<sub>2</sub> emission reduction. In this work, we develop a mixed integer linear optimization model that selects appropriate sources, capture process,...

A much occurring problem in the Energy Management Systems of existing buildings and HVAC services is that the measurements are unreliable. In this article a methodology is described which can be used to determine the presence of errors in energy monitoring, caused by faulty measurements. These errors can be detected and subsequently diagnosed....

<b>In the last two decades, CubeSats have changed the perception of satellite missions aided by standardization and usage of commercial-off-the-shelf components. CubeSats have also proven the feasibility of low cost and short development time space missions. The PocketQube with a form factor of 5x5x5 cm has been...

This paper aims to present a way with which audible differences in measured and auralized (i.e. aurally simulated) aircraft noise can be quantified. The purpose of the study is to find a means with which the subjective differences between measured and synthesized sounds can be expressed in an objective manner. The quantification would firstly...

Shell structures are used as primary structures of space launch vehicles. These structures are thin-walled and are thus prone to buckling when loaded in compression. Because of the imperfection sensitivity of these structures, small deviations of the real shell from the theoretically perfect shell may result in a tremendous decrease in load...

In this paper, we propose a deep convolutional neural network solution to the analysis of image data for the detection of rail surface defects. The images are obtained from many hours of automated video recordings. This huge amount of data makes it impossible to manually inspect the images and detect rail surface defects. Therefore, automated...

The work herein presented investigates the behavior of graphene-based gas sensors realized by using an innovative way to prepare graphene. The sensing layer was directly grown by chemical vapor deposition on pre-patterned CMOS compatible Mo catalyst and then it was eased on the underlying SiO2 through a completely transfer-free process. Devices...

Multi-microphone noise reduction algorithms in binaural hearing aids which cooperate through a wireless link have the potential to become of great importance in future hearing aid systems. However, limited transmission capacity of such devices necessitates the data compression of signals transmitted from one hearing aid to the contralateral one....

People often have reciprocal habits, almost auto- matically responding to others’ actions. A robot who interacts with humans may also reciprocate, in order to come across natural and be predictable. We aim to facilitate decision sup- port that advises on utility-efficient habits in these interac- tions. To this end, given a model for...

Dynamic charging of electric vehicles (EV) refers to charging the EV using variable charging power. This is important for applications where the EV is charged from intermittent renewable energy sources like wind or solar. Dynamic charging can be implemented using three standards - AC charging, DC charging via Chademo and CCS/COMBO. This paper...

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) can be used as function approximators in Reinforcement Learning (RL). One advantage of DNNs is that they can cope with large input dimensions. Instead of relying on feature engineering to lower the input dimension, DNNs can extract the features from raw observations. The drawback of this end-to-end learning is that it...
