Stochastic collocation on unstructured multivariate meshes
Collocation has become a standard tool for approximation of parameterized
systems in the uncertainty quantification (UQ) community. Techniques for
least-squares regularization, compressive sampling recovery, and interpolatory
reconstruction are becoming standard tools used in a variety of applications.
Selection of a collocation mesh is frequently a challenge, but methods that
construct geometrically "unstructured" collocation meshes have shown great
potential due to attractive theoretical properties and direct, simple
generation and implementation. We investigate properties of these meshes,
presenting stability and accuracy results that can be used as guides for
generating stochastic collocation grids in multiple dimensions.Comment: 29 pages, 6 figure
Bibliometric Mapping of the Computational Intelligence Field
In this paper, a bibliometric study of the computational intelligence field is presented. Bibliometric maps showing the associations between the main concepts in the field are provided for the periods 1996–2000 and 2001–2005. Both the current structure of the field and the evolution of the field over the last decade are analyzed. In addition, a number of emerging areas in the field are identified. It turns out that computational intelligence can best be seen as a field that is structured around four important types of problems, namely control problems, classification problems, regression problems, and optimization problems. Within the computational intelligence field, the neural networks and fuzzy systems subfields are fairly intertwined, whereas the evolutionary computation subfield has a relatively independent position.neural networks;bibliometric mapping;fuzzy systems;bibliometrics;computational intelligence;evolutionary computation
Robust stability of fractional-order linear time-invariant systems: Parametric versus Unstructured Uncertainty Models
The main aim of this paper is to present and compare three approaches to uncertainty modeling and robust stability analysis for fractional-order (FO) linear time-invariant (LTI) single-input single-output (SISO) uncertain systems. The investigated objects are described either via FO models with parametric uncertainty, by means of FO unstructured multiplicative uncertainty models, or through FO unstructured additive uncertainty models, while the unstructured models are constructed on the basis of appropriate selection of a nominal plant and a weight function. Robust stability investigation for systems with parametric uncertainty uses the combination of plotting the value sets and application of the zero exclusion condition. For the case of systems with unstructured uncertainty, the graphical interpretation of the utilized robust stability test is based mainly on the envelopes of the Nyquist diagrams. The theoretical foundations are followed by two extensive, illustrative examples where the plant models are created; the robust stability of feedback control loops is analyzed, and obtained results are discussed.European Regional Development Fund under the project CEBIA-Tech Instrumentation [CZ.1.05/2.1.00/19.0376]; Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic within the National Sustainability Programme [LO1303 (MSMT-7778/2014)
A continuous analogue of the tensor-train decomposition
We develop new approximation algorithms and data structures for representing
and computing with multivariate functions using the functional tensor-train
(FT), a continuous extension of the tensor-train (TT) decomposition. The FT
represents functions using a tensor-train ansatz by replacing the
three-dimensional TT cores with univariate matrix-valued functions. The main
contribution of this paper is a framework to compute the FT that employs
adaptive approximations of univariate fibers, and that is not tied to any
tensorized discretization. The algorithm can be coupled with any univariate
linear or nonlinear approximation procedure. We demonstrate that this approach
can generate multivariate function approximations that are several orders of
magnitude more accurate, for the same cost, than those based on the
conventional approach of compressing the coefficient tensor of a tensor-product
basis. Our approach is in the spirit of other continuous computation packages
such as Chebfun, and yields an algorithm which requires the computation of
"continuous" matrix factorizations such as the LU and QR decompositions of
vector-valued functions. To support these developments, we describe continuous
versions of an approximate maximum-volume cross approximation algorithm and of
a rounding algorithm that re-approximates an FT by one of lower ranks. We
demonstrate that our technique improves accuracy and robustness, compared to TT
and quantics-TT approaches with fixed parameterizations, of high-dimensional
integration, differentiation, and approximation of functions with local
features such as discontinuities and other nonlinearities
Stable, Robust and Super Fast Reconstruction of Tensors Using Multi-Way Projections
In the framework of multidimensional Compressed Sensing (CS), we introduce an
analytical reconstruction formula that allows one to recover an th-order
data tensor
from a reduced set of multi-way compressive measurements by exploiting its low
multilinear-rank structure. Moreover, we show that, an interesting property of
multi-way measurements allows us to build the reconstruction based on
compressive linear measurements taken only in two selected modes, independently
of the tensor order . In addition, it is proved that, in the matrix case and
in a particular case with rd-order tensors where the same 2D sensor operator
is applied to all mode-3 slices, the proposed reconstruction
is stable in the sense that the approximation
error is comparable to the one provided by the best low-multilinear-rank
approximation, where is a threshold parameter that controls the
approximation error. Through the analysis of the upper bound of the
approximation error we show that, in the 2D case, an optimal value for the
threshold parameter exists, which is confirmed by our
simulation results. On the other hand, our experiments on 3D datasets show that
very good reconstructions are obtained using , which means that this
parameter does not need to be tuned. Our extensive simulation results
demonstrate the stability and robustness of the method when it is applied to
real-world 2D and 3D signals. A comparison with state-of-the-arts sparsity
based CS methods specialized for multidimensional signals is also included. A
very attractive characteristic of the proposed method is that it provides a
direct computation, i.e. it is non-iterative in contrast to all existing
sparsity based CS algorithms, thus providing super fast computations, even for
large datasets.Comment: Submitted to IEEE Transactions on Signal Processin
Review of the mathematical foundations of data fusion techniques in surface metrology
The recent proliferation of engineered surfaces, including freeform and structured surfaces, is challenging current metrology techniques. Measurement using multiple sensors has been proposed to achieve enhanced benefits, mainly in terms of spatial frequency bandwidth, which a single sensor cannot provide. When using data from different sensors, a process of data fusion is required and there is much active research in this area. In this paper, current data fusion methods and applications are reviewed, with a focus on the mathematical foundations of the subject. Common research questions in the fusion of surface metrology data are raised and potential fusion algorithms are discussed
