cleanSURFACES® intervention reduces microbial activity on surfaces in a senior care facility

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
As one of the top public health challenges outlined by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), estimates report that hospital acquired infections (HAIs) claim the lives of 99,000 Americans and cost healthcare providers over $28 billion each year.

Exact and Inexact Lifting Transformations of Nonlinear Dynamical Systems: Transfer Functions, Equivalence, and Complexity Reduction

Applied Sciences, 2022
In this work, we deal with the problem of approximating and equivalently formulating generic nonlinear systems by means of specific classes thereof. Bilinear and quadratic-bilinear systems accomplish precisely this goal.

Quantum System Identification [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2012
The aim of quantum system identification is to estimate the ingredients inside a black box, in which some quantum-mechanical unitary process takes place, by just looking at its input-output behavior. Here we establish a basic and general framework for quantum system identification, that allows us to classify how much knowledge about the quantum system ...

An approach to the inference of finite state machines based on a gravitationally-inspired search algorithm; pp. 39–46 [PDF]

Proceedings of the Estonian Academy of Sciences, 2013
As the inference of a finite state machine from samples of its behaviour is NP-hard, heuristic search algorithms need to be applied. In this article we propose a methodology based on applying a new gravitationally-inspired heuristic search algorithm for ...

System identification—A survey [PDF]

Automatica, 1971
The field of identification and process-parameter estimation has developed rapidly during the past decade. In this survey paper the state-of-the-art/science is presented in a systematic way. Attention is paid to general properties and to classification of identification problems. Model structures are discussed; their choice hinges on the purpose of the

Modern pollen-vegetation relationships in the Taihang Mountains: Towards the quantitative reconstruction of land-cover changes in the North China Plain

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Pollen-based land cover reconstructions are important for understanding the history of regional environmental responses to natural and anthropogenic factors, and for managing the ecological environment.

Optimal Power Flow with Stochastic Solar Power Using Clustering-Based Multi-Objective Differential Evolution

Energies, 2022
Optimal power flow is one of the fundamental optimal operation problems for power systems. With the increasing scale of solar energy integrated into power systems, the uncertainty of solar power brings intractable challenges to the power system operation.

Short‐Term Exposure to Ambient Air Pollution and Hospital Admissions for Sequelae of Stroke in Chinese Older Adults

GeoHealth, 2022
Extensive evidence suggests that ambient air pollution contributes to a higher risk of hospital admissions for cerebrovascular diseases; however, its association with admissions for sequelae of stroke remains unclear.

A Simple Framework for Identifying Dynamical Systems in Closed-Loop

IEEE Access, 2021
In this paper, we propose a simple framework for closed-loop system identification: the stabilized output error method. Traditional closed-loop system identification methods rely on the linearity of the target system, and they require the identification ...
