  2. 1. Adaptive Resistance : Power Struggles over Gender Quotas in Uruguay

    Author : Cecilia Josefsson; Pär Zetterberg; Li Bennich-Björkman; Susan Franceschet; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; resistance; gender; representation; public policy; political parties; institutional analysis; gender quotas; Uruguay; Statskunskap; Political Science;

    Abstract : Why and how do progressive social policies aimed at creating a more just and equal society fail? In seeking to increase our understanding of gendered institutional change in general, and gender equality policy failure in particular, this book explores the role of resistance among privileged political elites in accounting for such failures. To shed light on the adaptive nature of resistance and how resisting actors – status quo defenders – are both empowered and circumscribed by their ideational and institutional environment, a resistance stage model is developed.

  4. 2. Stochastic Modeling for Video Object Tracking and Online Learning: manifolds and particle filters

    Author : Zulfiqar Hasan Khan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; anisotropic mean shift; online learning of reference object; covariance tracking; consensus point feature correspondences; Bayesian tracking; Gabor features; Visual object tracking; Grassmann manifold.; Riemannian manifold; particle filters;

    Abstract : Classical visual object tracking techniques provide effective methods when parameters of the underlying process lie in a vector space. However, various parameter spaces commonly occurring in visual tracking violate this assumption. READ MORE

  5. 3. Recursive Bayesian Estimation : Navigation and Tracking Applications

    Author : Niclas Bergman; Fredrik Gustafsson; Lennart Ljung; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Target tracking; Autonomous aircraft navigation; Terrain navigation;

    Abstract : Recursive estimation deals with the problem of extracting information about parameters, or states, of a dynamical system in real time, given noisy measurements of the system output. Recursive estimation plays a central role in many applications of signal processing, system identification and automatic control. READ MORE

  6. 4. Applications of Information Inequalities to Linear Systems : Adaptive Control and Security

    Author : Ingvar Ziemann; Henrik Sandberg; Alexandre Proutiere; Nikolai Matni; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Stochastic Adaptive Control; Machine Learning; Fisher Information; Secure Control; Fundamental Limitations; Reinforcement Learning; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis considers the application of information inequalities, Cramér-Rao type bounds, based on Fisher information, to linear systems. These tools are used to study the trade-offs between learning and performance in two application areas: adaptive control and control systems security. READ MORE

  7. 5. Fixed-Feedback SISO Adaptive Control

    Author : Magnus Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Two-Degrees-of-Freedom Control; Feedforward Control; Adaptive Control;

    Abstract : Adaptive control is an attractive method to solve control problemssince the tedious task of identifying process behavior to find asuitable design for the controller is taken care of by the adaptivecontroller itself. It may be difficult, however, to guaranteerobustness (in the sense of desired disturbance attenuation andstability margins) for traditional adaptive schemes since theircorresponding loop gain is time varying.
