Lv, Maolong (author), Li, Yongming (author), Pan, W. (author), Baldi, S. (author)This article proposes a fuzzy adaptive design solving the finite-time constrained tracking for hypersonic flight vehicles (HFVs). Actuator dynamics and asymmetric time-varying constraints are considered when solving this problem. The main features of the proposed design lie in 1) introducing a novel piecewise but differentiable switching...journal article 2022

Peruffo, A. (author), Mazo, M. (author)We employ the scenario approach to compute probably approximately correct (PAC) bounds on the average inter-sample time (AIST) generated by an unknown PETC system, based on a finite number of samples. We extend the scenario optimisation to multiclass SVM algorithms in order to construct a PAC map between the concrete state-space and the inter...journal article 2022

Smirnova, Alisa (author), Yang, J. (author), Yang, Dingqi (author), Cudre-Mauroux, Philippe (author)Noisy labels represent one of the key issues in supervised machine learning. Existing work for label noise reduction mainly takes a probabilistic approach that infers true labels from data distributions in low-level feature spaces. Such an approach is not only limited by its capability to learn high-quality data representations, but also by...journal article 2022

Gong, J. (author), Chen, Y. (author), Charbon-Iwasaki-Charbon, E. (author), Sebastiano, F. (author), Babaie, M. (author)This article presents a 4-to-5GHz LC oscillator operating at 4.2K for quantum computing applications. The phase noise (PN) specification of the oscillator is derived based on the control fidelity for a single-qubit operation. To reveal the substantial gap between the theoretical predictions and measurement results at cryogenic temperatures, a...journal article 2022

Lv, Maolong (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author), Shi, Chao (author), Baldi, S. (author)This work studies logic-based distributed switching control for nonlinear agents in power-chained form, where logic-based (switching) control arises from the online estimation of the control directions assumed to be unknown for all agents. Compared to the state-of-the-art logic-based mechanisms, the challenge of power-chained dynamics is that...journal article 2022

(author), Catthoor, Francky (author), Bishnoi, R.K. (author), Hamdioui, S. (author)Spin-transfer torque magnetic random access memory (STT-MRAM) based computation-in-memory (CIM) architectures have shown great prospects for an energy-efficient computing. However, device variations and non-idealities narrow down the sensing margin that severely impacts the computing accuracy. In this work, we propose an adaptive referencing...conference paper 2022

Sharma, Salil (author), van Lint, J.W.C. (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author), Snelder, M. (author)This paper studies and compares the gap selection process of multiple vehicle classes (passenger cars, delivery vans, and trucks) within their discretionary lane changing activities. Given a trajectory or a sequence of gap selection decisions, we aim to predict whether a vehicle will change or keep a lane. For this purpose, we use a large...journal article 2022

Pourahmad, Ali (author), Dehghani, Rasoul (author), Ahmadi-Mehr, Seyed Amir-Reza (author), Lotfi, R. (author)Implementation of the DAC is usually the bottleneck in designing a SAR ADC. Here an innovative DAC-less SAR (DLSAR) ADC architecture is presented which alleviates some drawbacks of the conventional SAR counterpart. The proposed DLSAR binary search algorithm is comprised of two arithmetic operations of division-by-two and subtraction to...journal article 2022

Verdier, C.F. (author), Kochdumper, Niklas (author), Althoff, Matthias (author), Mazo, M. (author)We propose a counterexample-guided inductive synthesis framework for the formal synthesis of closed-form sampled-data controllers for nonlinear systems to meet STL specifications over finite-time trajectories. Rather than stating the STL specification for a single initial condition, we consider an (infinite and bounded) set of initial...journal article 2022

Dell'Anna, D. (author), Jamshidnejad, A. (author)Socially Assistive Robots (SARs) are increasingly used in dementia and elderly care. In order to provide effective assistance, SARs need to be personalized to individual patients and account for stimulating their divergent thinking in creative ways. Rule-based fuzzy logic systems provide effective methods for automated decision-making of SARs...journal article 2022

Vuillot, C. (author), Breuckmann, Nikolas P. (author)We introduce quantum pin codes: a class of quantum CSS codes. Quantum pin codes are a generalization of quantum color codes and Reed-Muller codes and share a lot of their structure and properties. Pin codes have gauge operators, an unfolding procedure and their stabilizers form so-called $\ell $ -orthogonal spaces meaning that the joint...journal article 2022

In a class-B PA, the IMD3 generated by the 3rd-order transconductance ( $g_{m3}$ ) and the gain compression have opposite signs, and thus, they can cancel each other at specific bias...journal article 2022
