Ranking Templates for Linear Loops [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present a new method for the constraint-based synthesis of termination arguments for linear loop programs based on linear ranking templates. Linear ranking templates are parametrized, well-founded relations such that an assignment to the parameters ...

Kuhn-Tucker-based stability conditions for systems with saturation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This paper presents a new approach to deriving stability conditions for continuous-time linear systems interconnected with a saturation. The method presented can be extended to handle a dead-zone, or in general, nonlinearities in the form of piecewise ...

Using infeasible path cuts to solve Electric Vehicle Routing Problems with realistic charging functions exactly within a branch-and-cut framework

open access: yesEURO Journal on Transportation and Logistics
The paper investigates the Electric Vehicle Routing Problem with a non-linear concave and strictly monotonic increasing charging function. In the literature, the non-linear charging function is typically approximated by a piecewise linear charging ...

Computing Correlation between Piecewise-Linear Functions

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Computing, 2013
We study the problem of computing correlation between two piecewise-linear bivariate functions defined over a common domain, where the surfaces they define in three dimensions---polyhedral terrains---can be transformed vertically by a linear transformation of the third coordinate (scaling and translation).

Slope estimation in noisy piecewise linear functions [PDF]

open access: yesSignal Processing, 2015
This paper discusses the development of a slope estimation algorithm called MAPSlope for piecewise linear data that is corrupted by Gaussian noise. The number and locations of slope change points (also known as breakpoints) are assumed to be unknown a priori though it is assumed that the possible range of slope values lies within known bounds.

Towards a simplified definition of Function Points [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
3Background. COSMIC Function Points and traditional Function Points (i.e., IFPUG Function points and more recent variation of Function Points, such as NESMA and FISMA) are probably the best known and most widely used Functional Size Measurement methods ...

Improving Neural Network Efficiency Using Piecewise Linear Approximation of Activation Functions

open access: yesProceedings of the International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Society Conference
Activation functions play a pivotal role in Neural Networks by enabling the modeling of complex non-linear relationships within data. However, the computational cost associated with certain activation functions, such as the hyperbolic tangent (tanh) and

Stability Analysis of Switched Linear Singular Systems with Unstable and Stable Modes

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
In this paper, stability is studied for a class of switched singular systems containing both stable and unstable modes. By introducing a time-varying piecewise Lyapunov function (TVPLF) and a mode-dependent average dwell time (ADT) switching rule, the ...

Piecewise nonlinear approximation for non-smooth functions

open access: yesResults in Applied Mathematics
Piecewise affine or linear approximation has garnered significant attention as a technique for approximating piecewise-smooth functions. In this study, we propose a novel approach: piecewise non-linear approximation based on rational approximation, aimed
