We describe the Submillimeter Array (SMA) Polarimeter, a polarization converter and feed multiplexer installed on the SMA. The polarimeter uses narrow-band quarter-wave plates to generate circular polarization sensitivity from the…
We propose a divide-and-conquer approach to filtering which decomposes the state variable into low-dimensional components to which standard particle filtering tools can be successfully applied and recursively merges them to recover the full…
Phase transitions are one of the most interesting natural phenomena. For finite systems, one of the concerns in the topic is how to classify a specific transition as being of first, second, or even of a higher order, according to the…
An adaptive parametric reduced-order modeling method based on interpolating poles of reduced-order models is proposed in this paper. To guarantee correct interpolation, a pole-matching process is conducted to determine which poles of two…
In this paper, we compute a low order approximation of a system of large order $n$ that matches $\nu$ moments of order $j_i$ of the transfer function, at $\nu$ interpolation points, has $\ell$ poles and $k$ zeros fixed and also matches…
Consider a scenario in which an unknown signal is transformed by a known linear operator, and then the pointwise absolute value of the unknown output function is reported. This scenario appears in several applications, and the goal is to…
