In this paper, an approximate LU factorization algorithm is developed for nonsymmetric matrices based on the hierarchically semiseparable matrix techniques. It utilizes a technique involving orthogonal transformations and approximations to avoid the explicit computation of the Schur complement in each factorization step. A modified compression method is further developed for ...

Path planning is a fundamental problem, especially for various AEC applications, such as architectural design, indoor and outdoor navigation, and emergency evacuation. However, the conventional approaches mainly operate path planning on 2D drawings or building layouts by simply considering geometric information, while losing abundant semantic information of building components. To ...

A higher order numerical discretization technique based on Minimum Sobolev Norm (MSN) interpolation was introduced in our previous work. In this article, the discretization technique is presented as a tool to solve two hard classes of PDEs, namely, the exterior Laplace problem and the biharmonic problem. The exterior Laplace problem ...

This paper presents a novel efficient satisfiability (SAT) algorithm based on maxterm covering. The satisfiability of a clause set is determined in terms of the number of relative maxterms of the empty clause with respect to the clause set. If the number of relative maxterms is zero, it is unsatisfiable, ...

This paper considers a novel fault diagnosis mechanism for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Without additional agents, the built-in and self-organized diagnosis mechanism can monitor each node in real time and identify faulty nodes. As the diagnosis is operated within a cluster of nodes, it can reduce power consumption and communication ...

Given a symmetric positive definite matrix $A$, we compute a structured approximate Cholesky factorization $A\approx\mathbf{R}^{T}\mathbf{R}$ up to any desired accuracy, where $\mathbf{R}$ is an upper triangular hierarchically semiseparable (HSS) matrix. The factorization is stable, robust, and efficient. The method compresses off-diagonal blocks with rank-revealing orthogonal decompositions. In the meantime, positive ...

We report on a method for formally specifying and verifying programmable logic controllers (PLCs) in the specification language TLA^+. The specification framework is generic. It separates the description of the environment from that of the controller itself and its structure is consistent with the scan cycle mechanism used by PLCs. ...
