Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$ with eigenvalues $λ_1(G) \geq \dots \geq λ_n(G)$, and let $s_+(G)=\sum_{λ_i(G)>0}λ_i(G)^2.$ Recently Liu, Tang, and Zhang proved the positive square-energy strengthening of Turán's theorem \[\sqrt{s_+(G)}\leq \left(1-\frac1r\right)n.\] where $r=ω(G)$ is the clique number of $G$. We characterize the...
A machine learning-assisted framework for the inverse design of pixelated millimetre-wave patch antennas targeting the 22--30 GHz band is presented. The antenna surface is represented as a 19x23 binary pixel grid on a Rogers RT/duroid 5880 substrate, where each pixel is either metal or empty, with a continuous electrical path from the...
Dynamic operating envelopes (DOEs) are increasingly used to publish time-varying export limits that keep distribution networks within operational limits. Purely technical DOE allocation, however, can systematically privilege electrically favorable prosumers, while embedding fairness directly into a single-period optimal power flow...
Design-space exploration of configurable Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) requires executable evaluation when design choices affect timing, fault propagation, recovery behavior, and temporal-property satisfaction. Repeated stochastic executions make exhaustive exploration impractical for large design spaces. This paper presents a...
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) have emerged as a promising technology for improving communication reliability in radar-communication coexistence (RCC) scenarios, particularly for communication users (CUs) located inside radar exclusion zones, where only the radar is permitted to operate and the two systems remain...
Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) consist of sensors, controllers, and actuators through communication and physical interactions, making them vulnerable to attacks on measurements, control logic, and equipment operation. Graph-based attack detectors, especially graph attention models, can localize such attacks by learning edge-adaptive...
This paper develops a direct data-driven framework for robust positively invariant (RPI) set synthesis for unknown linear time-invariant systems under state-feedback and observer-based output-feedback scenarios. The feedback and observer gains, along with the RPI sets, are directly synthesized from noisy offline data by solving...
This paper presents a fully reconfigurable RF vector modulator (RFVM)-based phase shifter for wideband beamforming phased array of 6G/NextG satellite communication (SATCOM). It covers the frequency range from S-band up to Ku-band. Specifically, the proposed RFVM features a novel vector modulation approach that relaxes the frequency...
This paper describes a fuel blending algorithm based on artificial intelligence and model predictive control. A gas-fired power plant was modeled using physical laws and on-site measurements. A neural network is used to calculate the methane number of the fuel and determine the fuel blending ratio limits so that the methane number is...
This paper addresses the fundamental design problem of plug-and-play distributed energy resource (DER) systems, which are emerging as a scalable solution for integrating distributed generation through user-driven connection of modular units. In such systems, the number of connected units is not fixed but dynamically varies due to user...
Dual-Orthogonality waveforms are multi-antenna signaling schemes that enforce mutual orthogonality across transmit channels and over a prescribed set of delay shifts. By relaxing strict time orthogonality to the physically admissible propagation region, they preserve full-band operation per transmit antenna while embedding...
We consider a multistatic radio-frequency imaging problem with anisotropy, in which the reflection from a point depends on the positions of the transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) arrays. The goal is to label the voxels of a field of view by a finite set of semantic classes and to group them into object instances. For the image formation...
Nonlinear Dynamic Inversion (NDI) has become a standard methodology in flight control law design. It offers an intuitive approach to decouple commanded variable responses, handle system nonlinearities, and adapt to operating conditions. NDI also comes with a well-structured architecture that reduces design effort by addressing various...
While recent advancements in TinyML have significantly reduced the computational complexity of on-device vision pipelines, image acquisition remains a dominant contributor to system-level energy consumption and memory footprint. In vision-enabled IoT platforms, the image sensor consumes energy comparable to the inference engine,...
Direct policy optimization is widely used in reinforcement learning and control, but generally leads to nonconvex optimization problems. For state-feedback $H_\infty$ control, the policy objective is also nonsmooth, despite possessing a benign landscape whose hidden convexity can be revealed by the recently developed extended convex...
The increasing UAV traffic in urban areas has prompted the creation of U-space, an EASA framework for safe and efficient unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operations. Within this context, this work presents a flight authorization framework that leverages autonomous UAVs, using their motion models and control characteristics to improve...
This paper proposes a framework for treating the inverse obstacle problem for nonlinear elliptic equations with nonlinear materials. The problem is challenging because nonlinear materials exhibit a rich diversity of scenarios to consider, since nonlinearity can take different forms. In this article, after categorizing the...
Source seeking arises in applications such as gas leak localization, radiation monitoring, and environmental surveillance, where the origin of an unknown signal field must be estimated from spatial measurements. In practice, the source location is not directly observable and must be inferred from noisy scalar measurements collected...
Existing studies on the pinching-antenna system (PAS) assume that waveguides are deployed straight, which fails to serve communication regions with curved boundaries. To address this limitation, this paper proposes a curved waveguide-enabled pinching-antenna system (C-PAS), where the waveguide is placed along the building ceiling in...
In recent years, low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) technologies have gained significant traction as a connectivity option for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. While these networks have been successful in providing long-range, low-power, and low-cost connectivity, they currently face scalability, reliability, and efficiency...
Seamless indoor--outdoor coverage conventionally relies on coordinated outdoor macro cells and indoor small cells, incurring high deployment and backhaul costs. Intelligent omni-surfaces (IOSs) provide a promising alternative by enabling simultaneous reflection and transmission across building boundaries. Enabled by recent advances in...
Dynamic spectrum access must coordinate secondary users under bursty primary-user activity while preserving packet reliability and delay. We present TACAN, a centralized policy that represents each channel as a token containing occupancy history and automatic-modulation-classification entropy; a context token supplies queue class,...
Robot manipulators are commonly engineered around a decoupled motion-generation stack: a planner computes a collision-free path and a lower-level controller tracks the resulting reference. This separation is computationally convenient, but it can produce references that are difficult to execute under actuator limits, tracking error,...
Mixture-of-experts (MoE) architectures enable efficient large language model (LLM) inference at the wireless edge by reducing per-token computation through sparse expert activation. The wireless distributed MoE (WIDE) architecture addresses edge-device resource constraints by distributing computation-intensive experts across devices...
Probability density functions are commonly estimated through preliminary smoothing or aggregation procedures, e.g., histograms or kernel density estimation, before subsequent functional representation and functional data analyses. Such a two-stage approach can lead to additional approximation bias and weaken the direct connection...
