Key words:
attraction domain, invariant ellipsoid, linear matrix inequalities, absolute
stability.
This paper is aimed at
efficiently characterizing reachability and attraction
domains of linear systems specified in the state space description. We
consider bounded controls in the form of the linear static state feedback and saturated control. A
description of reachability and attraction domains for such systems is given
in terms of invariant ellipsoids using the
apparatus of linear matrix inequalities and semidefi-nite programming formulation. Design of saturated
control is based on the ideas of the theory of absolute stability.

how to find the value of mean growth rate of the

Adaptive Audio-Visual Clustering for Multiple Object
Localization

Inria, Grenoble, France
Keywords: multimodal
systems, mixture models, expectation maximization.
This
paper addresses the issue of identifying and localizing those objects
in a scene that are both seen and heard. In particular, the task of
localizing human speakers is emphasized. We explain the benefits of a human-like
configuration of sensors (binaural and binocular) for gathering both auditory
and visual observations. It is shown that the identification and localization
problem can be recast as the task of adaptive
clustering the audio-visual observations into coherent groups. We propose a probabilistic generative model that
captures the relations between audio and visual observations. This model
maps the data to a representation of the
common 3D scene-space via a pair of mixture models. Inference is performed by a
Generalized Expectation Maximization (GEM) algorithm, which provides
cooperative estimates of both the auditory activity and the 3D position
of each object. Different versions of GEM
are described and compared, their performance on the tasks of multiple
and single speaker detection and localization is demonstrated.

Clustering
is the subject of active research in several fields such as statistics,
pattern recognition, machine learning etc. Review of several algorithms
for assessing cluster stability is performed. The first group of
described algorithms uses indexes, based on multivariate statistics, which
compare dispersions within and between the clusters. The second group
uses stability functions that measure the consistency of labels assignments
to sample elements. Notion of clustering and cluster stability
is introduced. Basic principles of clustering algorithms are discovered.
