Most of the practical systems including aircraft system dynamics are nonlinear and stochastic in nature, so the linearized models without having accurate knowledge of noise characteristics to them may lead to inaccurate results and poor performance. In the presence of measurement & process noise, the parameters estimates of dynamic systems are asymptotically biased, inconsistent and inefficient. In the case of state estimation of nonlinear sys...

A travers ces quelques notes, nous décrivons quelques pistes de réflexion de l'usage des méthodes de Monte Carlo séquentielles et de l'algorithme Espérance-Maximisation lorsque la structure de dépendance du modèle étudié est plus accrue. Le cadre étant la représentation à espaces d'états d'un modèle de Markov caché.

The book explains why restrictions on case drop apply asymmetrically between subjects and objects and also between...

This book studies the recent financial crisis and government intervention from a totally new perspective. This book argues why free...

Saffron, although one of the most important crops, has received very little attention from the scientific community. Particularly, no reports are available on the rhizosphere microbiology of the crop that would show the relationship between the corm and fertility management. The rhizosphere was evaluated by the use of different selective media. Isolates were characterized on morphological and biochemical basis. These isolated were screened for...
