An inequality for positive definite matrices with applications to combinatorial matrices [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
If A ∈ Mn(C) is a positive definite Hermitian matrix, d the average of the diagonal entries of A, and f the average of the absolute values of the off-diagonal entries of A, then det A ⩽ (d − f)n−1[d + (n − 1)f].

Contact Force Estimation in Human–Robot Collaboration: A Case Study on Heavyweight Robotic Manipulators

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The method presented in this paper provides a practical sensorless solution for estimating both contact force and contact location using only standard joint encoders and an available robot dynamic model. By reformulating the contact estimation problem using a single scalar equivalent contact parameter, the approach enables fast and robust computation ...

Even-Order Pascal Tensors Are Positive-Definite

open access: yesMathematics
In this paper, we show that even-order Pascal tensors are positive-definite, and odd-order Pascal tensors are strongly completely positive. The significance of these is that our induction proof method also holds for some other families of completely ...

Approximation of the pth Roots of a Matrix by Using Trapezoid Rule

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2012
The computation of the roots of positive definite matrices arises in nuclear magnetic resonance, control theory, lattice quantum chromo-dynamics (QCD), and several other areas of applications.

‘Turkeys Cannot Vote for Christmas’: Why Epistemic Disobedience in an Anti‐Black World Matters

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Never in the history of global coloniality has the idea of epistemic disobedience been as important as in the 21st century. This is not only because the struggle for decolonisation has shifted from physical confrontation between the coloniser and the colonised into a battle of ideas but also because the former has deployed the idea of ...

Random projections on manifolds of symmetric positive definite matrices for image classification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Recent advances suggest that encoding images through Symmetric Positive Definite (SPD) matrices and then interpreting such matrices as points on Riemannian manifolds can lead to increased classification performance.

Adapting the interior point method for the solution of LPs on serial, coarse grain parallel and massively parallel computers [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
In this paper we describe a unified scheme for implementing an interior point algorithm (IPM) over a range of computer architectures. In the inner iteration of the IPM a search direction is computed using Newton's method.

Kolmogorov's complexity for positive definite matrices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Based on Kolmogorov's idea, complexity of positive definite matrices with respect to a unit vector is defined. We show that the range of the complexity coincides with the logarithm of its spectrum and the order induced by the complexity is equivalent to ...
