Elimination of traffic induced operational variability with Robust Principal Component Analysis (rPCA)

Regular maintenance of civil engineering structures is essential for their safety. Current maintenance regimes involve periodic inspections at regular time intervals. In the time between inspections, there can be a critical development in the structural integrity of a structure, which can be expensive to repair or could even lead to structural...

Spatio-temporal field estimation using kriged kalman filter (KKF) with sparsity-enforcing sensor placement

We propose a sensor placement method for spatio-temporal field estimation based on a kriged Kalman filter (KKF) using a network of static or mobile sensors. The developed framework dynamically designs the optimal constellation to place the sensors. We combine the estimation error (for the stationary as well as non-stationary component of the...
