American industry is rapidly putting automatic data collection to work tracking raw materials, work-in-process (WJP), finished goods, labor, and time & attendance. Automatic data collection using bar codes, radio frequency data communications (RFDC), radio frequency identification tags (RFID), electronic data interchange (EDI), and other technologies are responsible for improved inventory...
Kaiman filter theory and autoregressive time series are used to map sea level height anomalies in the tropical Pacific. Our Kalman filters are implemented with a linear state space model consisting of evolution equations for the amplitudes of baroclinic Kelvin and Rossby waves and data from the Pacific tide gauge...
