The paper extends an impulsive control-theoretical framework towards dynamic systems in the space of measures. We consider a transport equation describing the time-evolution of a conservative "mass" (probability measure), which represents…

In recent papers it has been suggested that human locomotion may be modeled as an inverse optimal control problem. In this paradigm, the trajectories are assumed to be solutions of an optimal control problem that has to be determined. We…

In this paper, we consider a risk-based optimal investment problem of an insurer in a regime-switching jump diffusion model with noisy memory. Using the model uncertainty modeling, we formulate the investment problem as a zero-sum,…

In this paper we show that the expected generalisation performance of a learning machine is determined by the distribution of risks or equivalently its logarithm -- a quantity we term the risk entropy -- and the fluctuations in a quantity…
