Distributionally Robust Chance Constrained Data-Enabled Predictive Control [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2020
In this article we study the problem of finite-time constrained optimal control of unknown stochastic linear time-invariant (LTI) systems, which is the key ingredient of a predictive control algorithm—albeit typically having access to a model. We propose

Melittin-lipid nanoparticles target to lymph nodes and elicit a systemic anti-tumor immune response

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The bee venom melittin has anti-tumor properties but is unsuitable for therapeutic use on its own. Here, the authors generate melittin-nanoparticles and demonstrate that the nanoparticles reduce tumor growth and generate an anti-tumor immune response.

Argument from Chance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In the article, first I present the atheistic argument from pointless evil and the argument from chance. The essence of the argument from chance consists in the incompatibility of the existence of purposeless events and the existence of a God who planned

LEM’S PHILOSOPHY OF CHANCE IN HIS FICTION AND NON-FICTION [PDF]

open access: yesFilozofia i Nauka, 2022
Stanislaw Lem recognizes the far-reaching role of chance both in gaining knowledge and in explaining the development of cultural norms. The consequences are explored by him in fiction and non-fiction.

Chance

open access: yes, 2021
This chapter is concerned with the ontological dimension of probability, or physical chance. It first reviews the history of probability, and locates the birth of the contemporary form of objective probability in the works of Christian Huygens (1629-1695) and Pierre Simon Laplace (1749-1827).

Chance-Constrained Collision Avoidance for MAVs in Dynamic Environments

open access: yesIEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2019
Safe autonomous navigation of microair vehicles in cluttered dynamic environments is challenging due to the uncertainties arising from robot localization, sensing, and motion disturbances.

The Chances of Propensities [PDF]

open access: yesThe British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, 2018
This article argues that if propensities are displayed in objective physical chances, then the appropriate representation of these chances is as indexed probability functions. Two alternative formal models or accounts for the relation between propensity properties and their chancy or probabilistic manifestations, in terms of conditionals and ...

High-throughput dual-colour precision imaging for brain-wide connectome with cytoarchitectonic landmarks at the cellular level

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
High-throughput imaging methods for brain-wide connectome mapping with precise location reference have been lacking. Here authors report a method that allows simultaneous acquisition of fluorescently labelled neurons and cytoarchitectural landmarks in ...

MUM'S CHANCES [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of General Practice, 2009
Jean* stared past us into the hereafter, barely moving except to gasp. Pale and emaciated, her breathing noisy, shallow, and fast, she clung to life by a thinning thread. The receiving casualty officer in A&E had given the 90 year old an intravenous line, started antibiotics, and referred to the on-call medics.
