Generalized linear model or GLM constitutes a large class of models and essentially extends the ordinary linear regression by connecting the mean of the response variable with the covariate through appropriate link functions. On the other…

Synchronization in a group of linear time-invariant systems is studied where the coupling between each pair of systems is characterized by a different output matrix. Simple methods are proposed to generate a (separate) linear coupling gain…
