Modeling of a closed loop cable-conduit transmission system
— Many surgical robots use cable-conduit pairs in a pull-pull configuration to actuate the instruments and transmit power into the patient’s body. Friction between the cable an...

Constant quality rate-control for video encoding based on activity segmentation
An enhanced, off-line, segment-based rate control approach is proposed for controlling the distortion variation across successive segments of a video sequence when encoding with s...

The explicit linear quadratic regulator for constrained systems
For discrete-time linear time invariant systems with constraints on inputs and states, we develop an algorithm to determine explicitly, the state feedback control law which minimi...
