  • Mixing time for a 3-cycle interacting particle system : a coupling approach

    Creator:
    Eves, Matthew Jasper
    Abstract:
    This thesis examines the mixing times for one-dimensional interacting particle systems. We use the coupling method to study the mixing rates for particle systems on the circle which move according to specific permutations e.g., transpositions and 3-cycles.

    . Thus by looking at the values of the process up to time n: X0, . . . , Xn, we can determine that event

  • Applying hierarchical and adaptive control to coordinating simple robots

    Creator:
    Knudson, Matthew D.
    Abstract:
    Coordinating multiple robots to achieve a complex task requires solving two distinct control problems: the high-level control problem of ensuring that each robot aims to perform a useful task (e.g., coordination) and the low-level control problem of ensuring that each robot actually performs the correct actions to achieve its task...
