Uncertainty Quantification in Planning Aircraft Ground Movement Operations With Towbarless Robotic Tractors

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article addresses the problem of quantifying the uncertainty in planning aircraft ground movement operations using towbarless robotic tractors taking into account the inherent uncertainties of the problem, specifically, the uncertainties in the weight of the aircraft and in the rolling resistance of the wheels of the main landing gear ...

On the Excess Distribution of Sums of Random Variables in Bivariate EV Models

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2007
Let (U,V ) be a random vector following a bivariate extreme value distribution (EVD) with reverse exponential margins. It is known that the excess distribution Fc(t) = P(U+V >ct | U+V > c) of U+V converges to F(t)= t2 as the threshold c increases if U,V

Fluctuation Analysis of the Atmospheric Energy Cycle

open access: yes, 2018
The atmosphere gains available potential energy by solar radiation and dissipates kinetic energy mainly in the atmospheric boundary layer. We analyze the fluctuations of the global mean energy cycle defined by Lorenz (1955) in a simulation with a ...

UNO: Unified Self‐Supervised Monocular Odometry for Platform‐Agnostic Deployment

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This work presents UNO, a unified monocular visual odometry framework that enables robust and adaptable pose estimation across diverse environments, platforms and motion patterns. Unlike traditional methods that rely on deployment‐specific tuning or predefined motion priors, our approach generalises effectively across a wide range of real ...

Adaptation in tunably rugged fitness landscapes: The Rough Mount Fuji Model

open access: yes, 2014
Much of the current theory of adaptation is based on Gillespie's mutational landscape model (MLM), which assumes that the fitness values of genotypes linked by single mutational steps are independent random variables. On the other hand, a growing body of

Dynamic Bayesian Network for Continuous Health Index Estimation and Condition Assessment of Power Transformers

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To address the limitations of traditional transformer health index (HI), such as high dependence on data integrity and inability to assist in diagnosing latent faults, this study proposes an HI prediction method based on dynamic Bayesian network (DBN).

Universal energy distribution for interfaces in a random field environment

open access: yes, 2003
We study the energy distribution function $\rho (E)$ for interfaces in a random field environment at zero temperature by summing the leading terms in the perturbation expansion of $\rho (E)$ in powers of the disorder strength, and by taking into account ...

Why Is Exclusivity in Broadcasting Rights Prevalent and Why Does Simple Regulation Fail?

open access: yesThe RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pay‐TV firms compete both downstream to attract viewers and upstream to acquire broadcasting rights. Because profits inherited from downstream competition satisfy a convexity property, allocating rights to the dominant firm maximizes the industry profit.
