Abstract:

The research activities are described in the sequel under the following headings Nonlinear stochastic systems Filtering of stochastic delay differential systems Performance bounds for nonlinear estimation problems--cone-bounded nonlinearities and estimation bounds, bounds using information and rate-distortion measures Filtering with false measurements Stochastic control--observer based compensators, control of finite-state finite-memory stochastic systems Adaptive control Failure detection methods A geometric approach to nonlinear stochastic process analysis Estimation and control problems in computer networks.
