Asymptotic Behavior of the Likelihood Function of Covariance Matrices of Spatial Gaussian Processes by Ralf Zimmermann

“…The covariance structure of spatial Gaussian predictors (aka Kriging predictors) is generally modeled by parameterized covariance functions; the associated hyperparameters in turn are estimated via the method of maximum likelihood. In this work, the asymptotic behavior of the maximum likelihood of spatial Gaussian predictor models as a function of its hyperparameters is investigated theoretically. …”

Neural Network Backstepping Controller Design for Fractional-Order Nonlinear Systems by Youjun Chen, Songyu Wang

“…It is noted that in the standard backstepping design, the fractional derivative of the virtual quantity needs to be calculated repeatedly, which will lead to a sharp increase in the number of controller terms with the increase of the system dimension and finally make the control system difficult to bear. To handle the estimation error, certain robust terms in the controller at the last step are designed. …”
