Complete and Near-Optimal Robotic Crack Coverage and Filling in Civil Infrastructure
We present a simultaneous sensor-based inspection and footprint coverage (SIFC) planning and control design with applications to autonomous robotic crack mapping and filling. The main challenge of the SIFC problem lies in the coupling of complete sensing (for mapping) and robotic footprint (for filling) coverage tasks. Initially, we assume known target information (e.g., crack) and employ classic cell decomposition methods to achieve complete sensing coverage of the workspace and complete robot…

Reverse inequalities for quasi-Riesz transform on the Vicsek cable system
This work is devoted to the study of so-called ``reverse Riesz'' inequalities and suitable variants in the context of some fractal-like cable systems. It was already proved by L. Chen, T. Coulhon, J. Feneuil and the second author that, in the Vicsek cable system, the inequality $\left\Vert Δ^{1/2}f\right\Vert_p\lesssim \left\Vert \nabla f\right\Vert_p$ is false for all $p\in [1,2)$. Following a recent joint paper by the two authors and M. Yang, we examine the validity of ``reverse quasi-Riesz'…

I laid around and was lazy most of the day yesterday due to not feeling well with a massive headache majority of the day.
It finally went away late yesterday afternoon, then came back a couple of hours later so I went to bed with a headache and once again, woke up with a headache again today.

It's been a couple of weeks since I did an update. I post these because I found #calisthenics four years ago on my way out (so to speak) of the E.R., and the sudden love saved my life — to use only a bit of hyperbole. (The cardiologist who did save me seems more …

According to police, Tyler Vogel, 26 of Lancaster NY, sent a text message to New York Attorney General #Letitia #James, saying he would use🔸 “death and physical harm 🔸if she did not comply with his requests to cease action” against Donald Trump,
specifically, the seizure of his assets and properties following New Yor…

'Mark my words I will kill you': Man threatened judge, NY AG in Trump fraud case, cops say
As one judge worried that Donald Trump's rhetoric would inspire threats against court officials, a man was arrested in New York for vowing to kill Attorney General Letitia James and a judge.

Rethinking Clustered Federated Learning in NOMA Enhanced Wireless Networks
This study explores the benefits of integrating the novel clustered federated learning (CFL) approach with non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) under non-independent and identically distributed (non-IID) datasets, where multiple devices participate in the aggregation with time limitations and a finite number of sub-channels. A detailed theoretical analysis of the generalization gap that measures the degree of non-IID in the data distribution is presented. Following that, solutions to address t…

College administrators are falling into a tried and true trap laid by the right
Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, conservative activists led a counterattack against campus antiwar and civil rights demonstrators by demanding action from college presidents, the courts and the police.

Sound Borrow-Checking for Rust via Symbolic Semantics
The Rust programming language continues to rise in popularity, and as such, warrants the close attention of the programming languages community. In this work, we present a new foundational contribution towards the theoretical understanding of Rust's semantics. We prove that LLBC, a high-level, borrow-centric model previously proposed for Rust's semantics and execution, is sound with regards to a low-level pointer-based language à la CompCert. Specifically, we prove the following: that LLBC is …
