Design of Flight Control System for a Novel Tilt-Rotor UAV by Zaibin Chen, Hongguang Jia

“…For control design purposes, the dynamics equation is linearized around the hovering equilibrium point, and a control allocation method based on trim calculation is developed. To deal with the actuator saturation and uncertain disturbance problems for the novel TRUAV, an improved flight control law based on the combination of the robust servo linear quadratic regulator (RSLQR) optimal control and the extended state observer (ESO) is proposed. …”

The linguistic expression of power in political addresses of Polish prime ministers from 1945 to 2019 (quantitative analysis) by Citlak Amadeusz, Kozioł Pamela

“…The concept of power provided a consistent explanation of the captured quantitative differences in the addresses: first, differences in language from the communist era and independent Poland after 1989; second, differences in language from the periods of breakthroughs in the country’s history (martial law, overthrow of communism, accession to NATO and the EU); third, in the addresses of the prime ministers representing different parties and political ideologies (Civic Platform and Law and Justice).…”

The Triptych of Dorian Gray (1890–91): Reading Wilde’s Novel as Three Print Objects by Brett Beasley

“…In this paper I investigate these three texts—the typescript, the magazine version, and the first edition—using both the methods of textual studies and the methods of social and literary history, showing that the various texts of The Picture of Dorian Gray actually embody different arguments about the status of material objects themselves. …”

LSTM vs. Prophet: Achieving Superior Accuracy in Dynamic Electricity Demand Forecasting by Saleh Albahli

“…This study presents a novel hybrid forecasting model that integrates Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and Prophet models, leveraging their complementary strengths through a dynamic weighted ensemble methodology. The LSTM component captures nonlinear dependencies and long-term temporal patterns, while Prophet models seasonal trends and event-driven fluctuations. …”

Information limits and Thouless-Anderson-Palmer equations for spiked matrix models with structured noise by Jean Barbier, Francesco Camilli, Yizhou Xu, Marco Mondelli

“…While both information-theoretic and algorithmic limits are well understood when the noise is a Gaussian Wigner matrix, the more realistic case of structured noise still remains challenging. To capture the structure while maintaining mathematical tractability, a line of work has focused on rotationally invariant noise. …”
