Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is widely used for dimensionality reduction and data analysis. However, PCA results are adversely affected by outliers often observed in real-world data. Existing robust PCA methods are often…

Model predictive control (MPC) is a de facto standard control algorithm across the process industries. There remain, however, applications where MPC is impractical because an optimization problem is solved at each time step. We present a…

Promptly porting patches from a source codebase to its variants (e.g., forks and branches) is essential for mitigating propagated defects and vulnerabilities. Recent studies have explored automated patch porting to reduce manual effort and…
