This paper considers a real-time algorithm for performance optimization of switched-mode hybrid dynamical systems. The controlled parameter consists of the switching times between the modes, and the cost criterion has the ...

Clustering is a powerful tool for data classification; however, its application has been limited to analysis of static snapshots of data which may be time-evolving. This work presents a clustering algorithm that employs a ...

An algorithm is presented for constructing smoothing splines on the torus. The algorithm uses a particular representation of the torus and is suboptimal. However it produces good trajectories and among all possible smoothing ...
