Population-Based Structural Health Monitoring [PDF]
One of the dominant challenges in data-based structural health monitoring (SHM) is the scarcity of measured data corresponding to different damage states of the structures of interest. A new arsenal of advanced technologies is described here that can be used to solve this problem. This new generation of methods is able to transfer health inferences and

Monitoring of population systems
Abstract This is a selected overview of a research line initiated and mostly developed by the three authors over the last three decades. Applying the state space paradigm of Mathematical Systems Theory, monitoring means that from the observation (a transform) of an unknown state process, the latter should be recovered.
