Discrete-time stochastic systems with continuous spaces are hard to verify and control, even with MDP abstractions due to the curse of dimensionality. We propose an abstraction-based framework with robust dynamic programming mappings that…
Accurate detection and classification of nuclei in histopathology images are critical for diagnostic and research applications. We present KongNet, a multi-headed deep learning architecture featuring a shared encoder and parallel,…
Statistical significance testing of neural coherence is essential for distinguishing genuine cross-signal coupling from spurious correlations. A widely accepted approach uses surrogate-based inference, where null distributions are generated…
Many headway-based car-following models describe longitudinal adaptation through linear relaxation laws, which can produce unrealistically large accelerations and limit the physical consistency of microscopic traffic dynamics. Motivated by…
This paper addresses the robustness of a prescribed-time observer for a class of nonlinear systems in the presence of disturbances and unmodeled dynamics. It is proven and demonstrated through simulations that the proposed observer…
Reinforcement learning (RL) has proven to be particularly effective in solving complex decision-making problems for a wide range of applications. Safe reinforcement learning refers to a class of constrained problems where the constraint…
Following successful large-vessel recanalization via endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS), some patients experience a complication known as no-reflow, defined by persistent microvascular hypoperfusion that…
We study the optimal green hydrogen production and energy market participation of a renewable-colocated hydrogen producer (RCHP) that utilizes onsite renewable generation for both hydrogen production and grid services. Under deterministic…
This paper considers stochastic linear time-invariant systems subject to constraints on the average number of state-constraint violations over time without knowing the disturbance distribution. We present a novel disturbance-adaptive model…
Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) is a well-studied technology for forming string-stable vehicle platoons. Ensuring collision avoidance is particularly difficult in CACC due to the small desired inter-vehicle spacing. We propose a…
This thesis develops a theoretical framework to evaluate the monitoring capability of IoBNT networks. We consider a scenario in which nanosensors passively flow in the bloodstream and detect biomarkers associated with potential diseases,…
We introduce SMART-HC-VQA, a Sentinel-2-based visual question answering dataset derived from the IARPA SMART Heavy Construction dataset, designed for spatiotemporal analysis of human activity. The dataset transforms construction-site…
This paper introduces a proactive Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) mobility management xApp for Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) Near Real-Time Radio Intelligent Controller (Near-RT RIC) environments, employing Double Deep Q-Network (DDQN)…
Quantitative cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enables non-invasive myocardial tissue characterization but relies on robust motion correction within these variable-length, variable-contrast image sequences. Groupwise registration,…
This paper studies the robustness of type-based multiple access (TBMA) in over-the-air computation (AirComp) under nonparametric estimation, where no prior knowledge of the data distribution is available. While conventional AirComp…
This paper addresses the problem of homography estimation using a nonlinear observer designed on the Lie group $\mathbf{SL}(3)$ that exploits the full image information through direct image registration. Unlike traditional feature-based…
Type 1 diabetes eliminates the body's ability to produce insulin, making glucose regulation entirely dependent on external insulin delivery and the control algorithm. Existing closed-loop methods either rely on accurate patient-specific…
We consider the problem of reconstructing the state of a network of nonlinear dynamical systems in the presence of directed higher-order interactions. Grounded on analytical convergence results, we propose an algorithmic observer design…
A hierarchical 2DOF (2-degree-of-freedom) structure combining Youla-Kucera (YK) parameterization and model predictive control (MPC) is presented in this paper. The YK parameterization employs the coprime factorization of the nominal system…
Reconstructing a 3D sound field from sparse microphone measurements is a fundamental yet ill-posed problem, which we address through Acoustic Transfer Function (ATF) magnitude estimation. ATF magnitude encapsulates key perceptual and…
