This paper presents an application specific processor architecture for the calculation of simplicial piecewise linear functions of up to six dimensions with 24-bit wide input words. The architecture, ...

This paper deals with piecewise-affine functions as Lyapunov function candidates for stability analysis of time-invariant discrete-time linear systems with saturating closed-loop control inputs.

A python implementation of the algorithm used to generate optimal piecewise linear approximations of convex functions proposed by Imamoto and Tang [1]. The algorithm uses an iterative search to find ...

In this problem, the optimal path is one that maximizes the expected utility, with the utility function being piecewise-linear and concave. Such a utility function can be used to approximate nonlinear ...

Many data are suitably modeled by functions consisting of straight-line segments. These functions may be called piecewise-linear. Smooth functions that are related to the hyperbola and that have ...
