We address the problem of production planning and distribution in multi-echelon supply chains. We consider uncertain demands and lead times which makes the problem stochastic and non-linear. A Markov Decision Process formulation and a…
This paper focuses on the problem of coflow scheduling with precedence constraints in identical parallel networks, which is a well-known $\mathcal{NP}$-hard problem. Coflow is a relatively new network abstraction used to characterize…
Line planning, i.e. choosing paths which are operated by one vehicle end-to-end, is an important aspect of public transport planning. While there exists heuristic procedures for generating lines from scratch, most theoretical observations…
We present an algorithm for controlling and scheduling multiple linear time-invariant processes on a shared bandwidth limited communication network using adaptive sampling intervals. The controller is centralized and computes at every…
Students have a limited time to study and are typically ineffective at allocating study time. Machine-directed study strategies that identify which items need reinforcement and dictate the spacing of repetition have been shown to help…
Pooling methods are necessities for modern neural networks for increasing receptive fields and lowering down computational costs. However, commonly used hand-crafted pooling approaches, e.g., max pooling and average pooling, may not well…
Train marshalling is the process of reordering the railcars of a train in such a way that the railcars with the same destination appear consecutively in the final, reassembled train. The process takes place in the shunting yard by means of…
This article presents MAPS$^2$ : a distributed algorithm that allows multi-robot systems to deliver coupled tasks expressed as Signal Temporal Logic (STL) constraints. Classical control theoretical tools addressing STL constraints either…
Millimeter-wave (mmWave) communication is a promising technology to cope with the exponential increase in 5G data traffic. Such networks typically require a very dense deployment of base stations. A subset of those, so-called macro base…
In the Rectangle Stabbing problem, input is a set ${\cal R}$ of axis-parallel rectangles and a set ${\cal L}$ of axis parallel lines in the plane. The task is to find a minimum size set ${\cal L}^* \subseteq {\cal L}$ such that for every…
The relationship between anomalous superdiffusive behavior and particle trapping probability is analyzed on a rocking ratchet potential with spatially correlated weak disorder. The trapping probability density is shown, analytically and…
When tasking robots in partially observable environments, these robots must efficiently and robustly plan to achieve task goals under uncertainty. Although many probabilistic planning algorithms exist for this purpose, these algorithms can…
This work presents a robust Model Predictive Controller (MPC) to solve the problem of spacecraft rendezvous in the context of the restricted three-body problem (R3BP) as will be required to dock with space stations in cislunar space. The…
Routing is a widespread approach to transfer information from a source node to a destination node in many deployed wireless ad-hoc networks. Today's implemented routing algorithms seek to efficiently find the path/route with the largest…
Linear Programming (LP) is an important decoding technique for binary linear codes. However, the advantages of LP decoding, such as low error floor and strong theoretical guarantee, etc., come at the cost of high computational complexity…
It is natural to expect that there are only three possible types of scaling limits for the collection of all percolation interfaces in the plane: (1) a trivial one, consisting of no curves at all, (2) a critical one, in which all points of…
Purpose: Recent studies have shown that spin-lock MRI can simplify quantitative magnetization transfer (MT) by eliminating its dependency on water pool parameters, removing the need for a T1 map in macromolecular proton fraction (MPF)…
We consider a variant of the channel simulation problem with a single input and multiple outputs, where Alice observes a probability distribution $P$ from a set of prescribed probability distributions $\mathbb{\mathcal{P}}$, and sends a…
In the last two decades, there has been much progress on model checking of both probabilistic systems and higher-order programs. In spite of the emergence of higher-order probabilistic programming languages, not much has been done to…
We consider here open level lines of potentials resulting from the superposition of two different periodic potentials on the plane. This problem can be considered as a particular case of the Novikov problem on the behavior of open level…
