Statistical learning algorithms in optimal and robust control of hybrid systems
No full textIn this paper we discuss how statistical learning methods may be used to obtain probabilistic robustness guarantees for optimal control problems involving hybrid systems. The main focus is on model predictive control of linear or piecewise affine systems with bounded inputs
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Crystal structure and photo-physical properties in a perovskite–type semiconducting hybrid phase: {(m-C6H7N2O2)2CdCl4}n
No full textA new intercalation crystalline polymer compound of bis m-nitroanilinium tetrachlorocadmate (II) {(m-C6H7N2O2)2CdCl4}n was synthesized and analyzed using single crystal SXRD, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), DFT analysis, thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and FT-IR, Raman, UV–Vis, fluorescence spectroscopy techniques. X-ray diffraction analyses (SXRD, PXRD) show a layered structure consisting of alternating organic bilayers and two-dimensional inorganic sheets in which each CdCl6 octahedron shares four corners with adjacent octahedra. The crystal packing is consolidated by means of classic and non-classic hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions. At room temperature photoluminescence spectra of {(m-C6H7N2O2)2CdCl4}n yield broad peaks in the 469–770 nm range with full width at half maximum (FWHM) values up to 153 nm. Besides, this compound exhibits a semiconducting behavior with bright red-light under 360 nm ultraviolet photoexcitation and possesses a large Stokes shift and direct band gap of 2.69 eV which overlaps well with solar spectrum. The CIE chromaticity coordinates of {(m-C6H7N2O2)2CdCl4}n are (x = 0.4704 and y = 0.4523). The color rendering index CRI and the low correlated color temperature CCT are 84 and 2861 K, respectively. Electronic structure (BS, DOS and PDOS), and optical properties (dielectric constant ε(ω), refractive index n(ω), reflectivity R(ω), absorption coefficient α(ω), optical conductivity σ(ω) and energy loss function L(ω) with the incident photon energy) were determined using (DFT) calculations by CASTEP code
Symbolic meaning and use of broad beans in traditional foods of the Mediterranean Basin and the Middle East
No full textBroad beans (Vicia faba L.) are rarely consumed in Northern Europe and in the USA, whereas they are constantly present in the culinary habits of the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern countries. This grain legume is characterized by interesting nutritional properties because of high levels of complex carbohydrates, proteins, and dietary fiber, coupled with a low content of saturated lipids and the presence of several bioactive compounds. However, broad beans are much more than a cheap source of nutrients. Among the oldest domesticated legumes, they have also a cultural value linked to an ancient symbolic meaning. Generally associated with funerary rituals, broad beans have also a positive significance being “dead” seeds with a regenerative capacity. This review focuses on the social symbolism of broad bean consumption and its associated rituals. Furthermore, the culinary habits related to this legume are analyzed along different Mediterranean and Middle Eastern countries, from Egypt to Iran. Soups, thick gruels, and purees were found to be by far the most common culinary preparations. Using the Egyptian ful medames as a model, the study highlights a link between broad bean–based dishes in different countries, which arises from similar environmental conditions and from cultural interactions along trade routes. Enhancing the knowledge of these ethnic legume-based foods could improve the diet of Western countries by increasing the consumption of legumes
