Model Based Information Fusion in Sensor Networks

In this paper, a model based sensor fusion algorithm for sensor networks is presented. The algorithm, referred to as distributed Kalman filtering is based on a previously presented algorithm with the same name. The weight selection process has been improved yielding performance improvements of several times for the examples studied. Also, solutions to both optimization problems involved in the ite

Gender in Scandinavian : On the gender systems in Mainland Scandinavian, with focus on Swedish

Basing my conclusions on Mainland Scandinavian, primarily Swedish, I argue that a strict division has to be made between three concepts or dimensions of gender: formal gender, semantic gender and lexical gender. Lexical gender is a salient meaning component of a noun; this dimension of gender is syntactically inert. Semantic gender is a category of thought, conveyed by pronominal resources. Semant

Wood Chip Refiner Control

The authors treat the control of a chip refiner to produce wood pulp, where the incremental gain between the motor load and the plate gap is subject to sudden changes due to pad collapse. Passive adaptive control with fault detection, active suboptimal dual control, and dual-control solutions are discussed. For dual control, the choice of the control criterion is crucial, as it must reflect the pe
