T(w)o Patch or Not T(w)o Patch: A Novel Biocontrol Model
Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A number of top‐down biocontrol models have been proposed where the introduced predators' efficacy is enhanced via the provision of additional food (AF). However, if the predator has a pest‐dependent monotone functional response, pest extinction is unattainable. In the current manuscript, we propose a model where a predator with pest‐dependent

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose To propose a new method using a physics‐guided neural network for quantitative parameter mapping in balanced steady‐state free precession (bSSFP) imaging. Theory and Methods We trained physics‐guided neural networks with a multilayer perceptron using simulated bSSFP signals generated from tissue parameters (T1$$ {T}_1 $$, T2$$ {T}_2 $$,

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose This study revisits the tetrahedral encoding strategy originally proposed to accelerate Diffusion Tensor Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DT‐MRI) by reducing the requisite number of diffusion‐weighted measurements to four. We examine its practical limitations and explore how artificial intelligence (AI) can extend its utility. Specifically,

New views of some invariants associated with the Cartesian 2D velocity gradient tensor
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Vorticity and divergence of horizontal flow are fundamental quantities in meteorology; both are linear functions of the four elements of the 2D velocity gradient tensor and both are formally unchanged under coordinate rotation. We explore four quadratic functions of the elements that are geometrically invariant in this sense, finding some novel ...

Sliding Mode Control in Aerospace Applications: A Survey
International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sliding mode control (SMC) enjoys robustness to matched and unmatched (in the case of minimum phase input‐output dynamics) bounded perturbations, and finite time convergence. Second‐order and higher‐order sliding mode control systems (2‐SMC/HOSMC) retain all the advantages of sliding mode control, but in addition can be applied to systems of ...

High‐Order Sliding‐Mode control for MIMO Systems
International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper extends Lyapunov‐based homogeneous high‐order sliding‐mode control to a class of uncertain non‐square multi‐input multi‐output (MIMO) nonlinear systems with a well‐defined vector relative degree. The considered systems admit a normal‐form representation with an uncertain but full‐row‐rank input‐gain matrix.

Outracing a National Level Model Racing Car Champion: A Hybrid Model‐Based Data‐Driven Approach
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper discusses lap time optimization, focusing on a single lap without considering opponents in autonomous racing. The paper presents a control and optimization architecture composed of a model‐based low level controller and a higher level iterative learning algorithm with the goal of obtaining the fastest qualifying lap in autonomous ...
