Estimation of Functional Ranges Using Standard and Inner Interval Arithmetic
New ways to estimate ranges of values of functions from standard and inner interval arithmetic have been proposed. Using the proposed ways ranges of values of mathematical test fun...

Event-based control using quadratic approximate value functions
Abstract— In this paper we consider several problems involving control with limited actuation and sampling rates. Event-based control has emerged as an attractive approach for ad...

Spline Curve Approximation and Design by Optimal Control Over the Knots
In [1] Optimal Control methods over re-parametrization for curve and surface design were introduced. The advantage of Optimal Control over Global Minimization such as in [17] is t...

Geometric Variance Reduction in Markov Chains: Application to Value Function and Gradient Estimation
We study a sequential variance reduction technique for Monte Carlo estimation of functionals in Markov Chains. The method is based on designing sequential control variates using s...
