Robust Structural Sparse Tracking
IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 2019Sparse representations have been applied to visual tracking by finding the best candidate region with minimal reconstruction error based on a set of target templates. However, most existing sparse trackers only consider holistic or local representations and do not make full use of the intrinsic structure among and inside target candidate regions ...

Structured Robust Covariance Estimation
Foundations and Trends® in Signal Processing, 2015We consider robust covariance estimation with an emphasis on Tyler’s M-estimator. This method provides accurate inference of an unknown covariance in non-standard settings, including heavy-tailed distributions and outlier contaminated scenarios. We begin with a survey of the estimator and its various derivations in the classical unconstrained settings.

Robust Structured Graph Clustering
IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems, 2020Graph-based clustering methods have achieved remarkable performance by partitioning the data samples into disjoint groups with the similarity graph that characterizes the sample relations. Nevertheless, their learning scheme still suffers from two important problems: 1) the similarity graph directly constructed from the raw features may be unreliable ...

Robustness in evolved grid structures
2009 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation, 2009This study explores the ability of dynamic polyominos to acquire different types of robustness in a variety of environments. A polyomino is a collection of identical squares joined along their sides to form a connected shape. This study introduces a cellular encoding for polyominos that grow in a manner that adapts to environmental obstructions ...

IABSE Reports, 2013
<p>Robustness has become an important general requirement for both, design of new and evaluation of existing structures, to reduce the global risk caused by structures. Methods to achieve robustness are presented in a systematic order and illustrated by examples.

Robust Control for Structural Systems with Unstructured Uncertainties
Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 2000Natural hazards, such as earthquakes and strong wind events, place large forces on tall, slender structures and on long-span bridges. In view of the numerous uncertainties due to model errors, stress calculations, material properties, and environmental loads, the structural system is uncertain.

Robust Coalition Structure Generation
2018How to form effective coalitions is an important issue in multi-agent systems. Coalition Structure Generation (\(\mathsf {CSG}\)) involves partitioning a set of agents into coalitions so that the social surplus (i.e. the sum of the rewards obtained by each coalition) is maximized.

Robustness of Inference of Haplotype Block Structure
Journal of Computational Biology, 2003In this report, we examine the validity of the haplotype block concept by comparing block decompositions derived from public data sets by variants of several leading methods of block detection. We first develop a statistical method for assessing the concordance of two block decompositions.

A cascade structure for robust control design
IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 1994In the context of robust control theory and applications, the well-known variable structure approach and the so-called binary control approach offer both interesting properties and disadvantages. In this paper, the idea of combining the two techniques in order to define a cascade structure exploiting the desirable features of both approaches is ...

The design of a building to be robust is an essential part of good structural design. Nominally, buildings may be stable under normal actions but abnormal actions – such as accidental damage, unexpected structural movement or the effects of poor quality control in construction – can produce consequences that are disproportionate to the initial event ...
