A Package for the Automated Classification of Periodic Variable Stars

, 2015
We present a machine learning package for the classification of periodic variable stars. Our package is intended to be general: it can classify any single band optical light curve comprising at least a few tens of observations covering durations from ...

Flexible-Link Robot Control Using a Linear Parameter Varying Systems Methodology

International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2014
This paper addresses the issues of the Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) modelling and control of flexible-link robot manipulators. The LPV formalism allows the synthesis of nonlinear control laws and the assessment of their closed-loop stability and ...

Deadbeat Robust Model Predictive Control: Robustness Without Computing Robust Invariant Sets

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 428-438, 10 January 2026.
ABSTRACT Deadbeat Robust Model Predictive Control (DRMPC) is introduced as a new approach of Robust Model Predictive Control (RMPC) for linear systems with additive disturbances. Its main idea is to completely extinguish the effect of the disturbances in the predictions within a small number of time steps, called the deadbeat horizon.

Lopinavir/ritonavir did not shorten the duration of SARS CoV-2 shedding in patients with mild pneumonia in Taiwan

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2020
An increase of Ct values was 0.9 per day in 2 cases of COVID-19 treated with lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r), an increase was 1.0 per day in 3 cases without LPV/r through illness day 1–10, indicating that LPV/r did not shorten the duration of SARS CoV-2 ...

Data‐Driven Distributed Safe Control Design for Multi‐Agent Systems

International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 137-150, January 2026.
This paper presents a data‐driven control barrier function (CBF) technique for ensuring safe control of multi‐agent systems (MASs) with uncertain linear dynamics. A data‐driven quadratic programming (QP) optimization is first developed for CBF‐based safe control of single‐agent systems using a nonlinear controller. This approach is then extended to the

Fault estimation for automotive Electro-Rheological dampers: LPV-based observer approach

Control Engineering Practice, 2019
This paper presents an LPV method for Fault Estimation, considering Electro-Rheological dampers of automotive suspension systems. Faults upon the dampers are modelled as Loss of Effectiveness multiplicative factors, which are estimated with the proposed ...

Significant improvements in self-reported gastrointestinal tolerability, quality of life, patient satisfaction, and adherence with lopinavir/ritonavir tablet formulation compared with soft gel capsules

AIDS Research and Therapy, 2008
Background The tablet formulation of ritonavir-boosted lopinavir (LPV/r; Kaletra®) has many advantages over the soft gel capsule (SGC) formulation, including lower pill count, no refrigeration requirement, and no dietary restrictions.
