Frequency restoration in power systems is conventionally performed by broadcasting a centralized signal to local controllers. As a result of the energy transition, technological advances, and the scientific interest in distributed control…
Power electronic devices such as HVDC and FACTS can be used to improve the damping of poorly damped inter-area modes in large power systems. This involves the use of wide-area feedback signals, which are transmitted via communication…
Since the seminal papers by Giannessi, an interesting topic in vector optimization has been the characterization of (weak) efficiency thorough Minty and Stampacchia type variational inequalities. Several results have been proved to extend…
In this paper we consider the problem of global asymptotic stabilization with prescribed local behavior. We show that this problem can be formulated in terms of control Lyapunov functions. Moreover, we show that if the local control law has…
The LOCAL model is among the main models for studying locality in the framework of distributed network computing. This model is however subject to pertinent criticisms, including the facts that all nodes wake up simultaneously, perform in…
We provide general formulation of weak identification in semiparametric models and an efficiency concept. Weak identification occurs when a parameter is weakly regular, i.e., when it is locally homogeneous of degree zero. When this happens,…
A functional data depth provides a center-outward ordering criterion which allows the definition of measures such as median, trimmed means, central regions or ranks in a functional framework. A functional data depth can be global or local.…
Time-varying optimization problems are central to many engineering applications, where performance metrics and system constraints evolve dynamically with time. Several algorithms have been proposed to address these problems; a common…
This work concerns the analysis and design of distributed first-order optimization algorithms over time-varying graphs. The goal of such algorithms is to optimize a global function that is the average of local functions using only local…
The quadratic system provided by the Time of Arrival technique can be solved analytical or by optimization algorithms. In real environments the measurements are always corrupted by noise. This measurement noise effects the analytical…
We discuss the theoretical treatment of non-global observables, those quantities that are sensitive only to radiation in a restricted region of phase space, and describe how large `non-global' logarithms arise when we veto the energy…
This paper propose a new frame work for finding global minima which we call optimization by cut. In each iteration, it takes some samples from the feasible region and evaluates the objective function at these points. Based on the…
It is argued that a weak value of an observable is a robust property of a single pre- and post-selected quantum system rather than a statistical property. During an infinitesimal time a system with a given weak value affects other systems…
As distributed systems increase in size, the need for scalable algorithms becomes more and more important. We argue that in the context of system identification, an essential building block of any scalable algorithm is the ability to…
We consider parallel simulations for asynchronous systems employing L processing elements that are arranged on a ring. Processors communicate only among the nearest neighbors and advance their local simulated time only if it is guaranteed…
Dynamic race detection is a highly effective runtime verification technique for identifying data races by instrumenting and monitoring concurrent program runs. However, standard dynamic race detection is incompatible with practical weak…
The adapted weak topology is an extension of the weak topology for stochastic processes designed to adequately capture properties of underlying filtrations. With the recent work of Bart--Beiglb\"ock-P. as starting point, the purpose of this…
Slow Feature Analysis is a unsupervised representation learning method that extracts slowly varying features from temporal data and can be used as a basis for subsequent reinforcement learning. Often, the behavior that generates the data on…
A weak value is an effective description of the influence of a pre and post-selected 'principal' system on another 'meter' system to which it is weakly coupled. Weak values can describe anomalously large deflections of the meter, and…
