A support vector machine-based method for LPV-ARX identification with noisy scheduling parameters
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we present a method that utilizes support vector machines (SVM) to identify linear parameter-varying (LPV) auto-regressive exogenous input (ARX) models corrupted by not only noise, but also uncertainties in ...
Effective Recommendation Of Reviewers For Research Proposals
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this project, we address the problem that a research funding agency may face when matching potential reviewers with submitted research proposals. A list of potential reviewers for a given proposal is typically selected ...
Advanced Thermal Energy Systems Based On Paraffin Waxes Applicable In Building Industry
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Thermal energy storage systems are crucial for reducing dependency on fossil fuels and minimizing CO2 emissions. The building sector is a major sector responsible for producing high levels of CO2 in most countries (including ...
Kinetic Study Of The Crystallization Of Lldpe And Wax In Lldpe/wax Phase-change Blends Used For Thermal Energy Storage
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Phase-change materials are used to store and release energy through phase changes, be it melting and solidification processes or solid state phase transitions. Among a large number of phase-change materials are paraffin ...
Sparsity-aware Multiple Relay Selection In Large Decode-and-forward Relay Networks
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Cooperative communication is a promising technology that has attracted significant attention recently thanks to its ability to achieve spatial diversity in wireless networks with only single-antenna nodes. The different ...
Solvent Extraction Of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons From Contaminated Soils In Qatar
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
The increase of soil and water contamination, caused by oil leakages during transportation and storage of petroleum components, present serious threat to human health and the environment. Total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) ...
Robust cooperative control reconfiguration/recovery in multi-agent systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a reconfigurable control protocol for a linear multi-agent system seeking consensus in presence of actuator faults and saturations and environmental disturbances is investigated. Two controllers, namely the ...
Analysis Of Date Palm Germplasm Phylogenetic Relationship Using Simple Sequence Repeat (ssr) Markers
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Background: Microsatellite (Simple Sequence Repeat) markers are very powerful tool especially in plant genome analysis because they are locus-specific, co-dominant, highly polymorphic and highly reproducible. However, in ...
Three-dimensional Electrospun Biodegradable Nanofibers Scaffolds Loaded With Amoxicillin For Wound Healing Applications: Preparation & Characterization
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Background: The use of electrospinning technology (ET) in fabrication of three-dimensional biodegradable electrospun nanofibers scaffolds (BENS) has recently gained considerable attention in tissue engineering. BENS are ...
A Bayesian approach for estimation of linear-regression LPV models
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a Bayesian framework for identification of linear parameter-varying (LPV) models with finite impulse response (FIR) dynamic structure is introduced, in which the dependency structure of LPV system on the ...
