To handle the Lipschitz nonlinearities, the Lipschitz condition and the Young′s relation are adequately operated to add more degrees of freedom to the proposed LMI. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of the unbiased reduced-order observer are given. An extension to H_∞ performance analysis is considered in order to deal with H_∞ asymptotic stability of the estimation error in the presence of disturbances that affect the state of the system. To highlight the effectiveness of the proposed design methodology, three numerical examples are considered. Then, high performances are shown through real time implementation using the ARDUINO MEGA 2560 device.展开更多

Therefore, a direction of arrival (DOA) estimation system based on self-organizing map (SOM) and designed for arbitrarily distributed sensor array is proposed. The essential principle of this method is that the map from distance difference of arrival (DDOA) to DOA is Lipschitz continuity, it indicates the similar topology between them, and thus Kohonen SOM is a suitable network to classify DOA through DDOA. The simulation results show that the DOA estimation errors are less than 1° for most signals between 0° to 180°. Compared to MUSIC, Root-MUSIC, ESPRIT, and RBF, the errors of signals under signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) declines from 20 dB to 2 dB are robust, SOM is better than RBF and almost close to MUSIC. Further, the network can be trained in advance, which makes it possible to be implemented in real-time.展开更多

Although numerous animal researches have shown that the neuroprotective effect of remote ischemic conditioning may be related to neuroinflammation, cellular immunity, apoptosis, and autophagy, the exact underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. This review summarizes the current status of different types of remote ischemic conditioning methods in animal and clinical studies and analyzes their commonalities and differences in neuroprotective mechanisms and signaling pathways. Remote ischemic conditioning has emerged as a potential therapeutic approach for improving stroke-induced brain injury owing to its simplicity, non-invasiveness, safety, and patient tolerability. Different forms of remote ischemic conditioning exhibit distinct intervention patterns, timing, and application range. Mechanistically, remote ischemic conditioning can exert neuroprotective effects by activating the Notch1/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt signaling pathway, improving cerebral perfusion, suppressing neuroinflammation, inhibiting cell apoptosis, activating autophagy, and promoting neural regeneration. While remote ischemic conditioning has shown potential in improving stroke outcomes, its full clinical translation has not yet been achieved.展开更多
