International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.This paper proposes two projector‐based Hopfield neural network (HNN) estimators for online, constrained parameter estimation under time‐varying data, additive disturbances, and slowly drifting physical parameters. The first is a constraint‐aware HNN that enforces linear equalities and inequalities (via slack neurons) and continuously tracks the ...

Protocol for the fabrication and application of a low-water-content polyelectrolyte hydrogel
STAR ProtocolsSummary: Hydrogels are prone to dehydration over prolonged use, leading to changes in their properties. Inspired by the human skin’s stratum corneum, we present a protocol for the fabrication and application of a low-water-content polyelectrolyte ...

Understanding heavy tails in a bounded world or, is a truncated heavy tail heavy or not? [PDF]
, 2009 We address the important question of the extent to which random variables and vectors with truncated power tails retain the characteristic features of random variables and vectors with power tails. We define two truncation regimes, soft truncation regime

On the nature of the X-ray absorption in the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 4507 [PDF]
, 1997 We present results of the ASCA observation of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 4507. The 0.5-10 keV spectrum is rather complex and consists of several components: (1) a hard X-ray power law heavily absorbed by a column density of about 3 10^23 cm^-2, (2) a ...
