    Assisted by the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model- based nonlinear control technique, nonlinear spatiotemporal feedback compensators are proposed in this article for exponential stabilization of parabolic partial differential dynamic systems with measurement outputs transmitted over a communication network. More specifically, an approximate T-S fuzzy partial differential equation (PDE) model with C∞-smooth membership functions is constructed to describe the complex spatiotemporal dynamics of the nonlinear partial differential systems, and its approximation capability is analyzed via the uniform approximation theorem on a real separable Hilbert space. A spatiotemporally asynchronous sampled-data measurement output equation is proposed to model the transmission process of networked measurement outputs. By the approximate T-S fuzzy PDE model, fuzzy-observer-based nonlinear continuous-time and sampled- data feedback compensators are constructed via the spatiotemporally asynchronous sampled-data measurement outputs. Given that sufficient conditions presented in terms of linear matrix inequalities are satisfied, the suggested fuzzy compensators can exponentially stabilize the nonlinear system in the Lyapunov sense. Simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness and merit of the suggested spatiotemporal fuzzy compensators

    Recent Progress in Image Deblurring

    This paper comprehensively reviews the recent development of image deblurring, including non-blind/blind, spatially invariant/variant deblurring techniques. Indeed, these techniques share the same objective of inferring a latent sharp image from one or several corresponding blurry images, while the blind deblurring techniques are also required to derive an accurate blur kernel. Considering the critical role of image restoration in modern imaging systems to provide high-quality images under complex environments such as motion, undesirable lighting conditions, and imperfect system components, image deblurring has attracted growing attention in recent years. From the viewpoint of how to handle the ill-posedness which is a crucial issue in deblurring tasks, existing methods can be grouped into five categories: Bayesian inference framework, variational methods, sparse representation-based methods, homography-based modeling, and region-based methods. In spite of achieving a certain level of development, image deblurring, especially the blind case, is limited in its success by complex application conditions which make the blur kernel hard to obtain and be spatially variant. We provide a holistic understanding and deep insight into image deblurring in this review. An analysis of the empirical evidence for representative methods, practical issues, as well as a discussion of promising future directions are also presented.Comment: 53 pages, 17 figure

    Model based fault diagnosis and prognosis of class of linear and nonlinear distributed parameter systems modeled by partial differential equations

    With the rapid development of modern control systems, a significant number of industrial systems may suffer from component failures. An accurate yet faster fault prognosis and resilience can improve system availability and reduce unscheduled downtime. Therefore, in this dissertation, model-based prognosis and resilience control schemes have been developed for online prediction and accommodation of faults for distributed parameter systems (DPS). First, a novel fault detection, estimation and prediction framework is introduced utilizing a novel observer for a class of linear DPS with bounded disturbance by modeling the DPS as a set of partial differential equations. To relax the state measurability in DPS, filters are introduced to redesign the detection observer. Upon detecting a fault, an adaptive term is activated to estimate the multiplicative fault and a tuning law is derived to tune the fault parameter magnitude. Then based on this estimated fault parameter together with its failure limit, time-to-failure (TTF) is derived for prognosis. A novel fault accommodation scheme is developed to handle actuator and sensor faults with boundary measurements. Next, a fault isolation scheme is presented to differentiate actuator, sensor and state faults with a limited number of measurements for a class of linear and nonlinear DPS. Subsequently, actuator and sensor fault detection and prediction for a class of nonlinear DPS are considered with bounded disturbance by using a Luenberger observer. Finally, a novel resilient control scheme is proposed for nonlinear DPS once an actuator fault is detected by using an additional boundary measurement. In all the above methods, Lyapunov analysis is utilized to show the boundedness of the closed-loop signals during fault detection, prediction and resilience under mild assumptions --Abstract, page iv
