We consider the problem of jointly estimating the attitude and spin-rate of a spinning spacecraft. Psiaki (J. Astronautical Sci., 57(1-2):73--92, 2009) has formulated a family of optimization problems that generalize the classical least-squares attitude estimation problem, known as Wahbas problem, to the case of a spinning spacecraft. If the rotation axis is fixed and known, but the spin-rate is unknown (such as for nutation-damped spin-stabilized spacecraft) we show that Psiakis problem can be reformulated exactly as a type of tractable convex optimization problem called a semidefinite optimization problem. This reformulation allows us to globally solve the problem using standard numerical routines for semidefinite optimization. It also provides a natural semidefinite relaxation-based approach to more complicated variations on the problem.

All spacecraft attitude estimation methods are based on Wahbas optimization problem. This problem can be reduced to finding the largest eigenvalue and the corresponding eigenvector for Davenports $K$-matrix. Several iterative algorithms, such as QUES T and FOMA, were proposed, aiming at reducing the computational cost. But their computational time is unpredictable because the iteration number is not fixed and the solution is not accurate in theory. Recently, an analytical solution, ESOQ was suggested. The advantages of analytical solutions are that their computational time is fixed and the solution should be accurate in theory if there is no numerical error. In this paper, we propose a different analytical solution to the Wahbas problem. We use simple and easy to be verified examples to show that this method is numerically more stable than ESOQ, potentially faster than QUEST and FOMA. We also use extensive simulation test to support this claim.
We study variational inequalities which are governed by a strongly monotone and Lipschitz continuous operator $F$ over a closed and convex set $S$. We assume that $S=Ccap A^{-1}(Q)$ is the nonempty solution set of a (multiple-set) split convex feasib ility problem, where $C$ and $Q$ are both closed and convex subsets of two real Hilbert spaces $mathcal H_1$ and $mathcal H_2$, respectively, and the operator $A$ acting between them is linear. We consider a modification of the gradient projection method the main idea of which is to replace at each step the metric projection onto $S$ by another metric projection onto a half-space which contains $S$. We propose three variants of a method for constructing the above-mentioned half-spaces by employing the multiple-set and the split structure of the set $S$. For the split part we make use of the Landweber transform.
In this article we introduce the use of recently developed min/max-plus techniques in order to solve the optimal attitude estimation problem in filtering for nonlinear systems on the special orthogonal (SO(3)) group. This work helps obtain computatio nally efficient methods for the synthesis of deterministic filters for nonlinear systems -- i.e. optimal filters which estimate the state using a related optimal control problem. The technique indicated herein is validated using a set of optimal attitude estimation example problems on SO(3).
This paper characterizes the solution to a finite horizon min-max optimal control problem where the system is linear and discrete-time with control and state constraints, and the cost quadratic; the disturbance is negatively costed, as in the standar d H-infinity problem, and is constrained. The cost is minimized over control policies and maximized over disturbance sequences so that the solution yields a feedback control. It is shown that the value function is piecewise quadratic and the optimal control policy piecewise affine, being quadratic and affine, respectively, in polytopes that partition the domain of the value function.
In this paper we describe an algorithm for predicting the websites at risk in a long range hacking activity, while jointly inferring the provenance and evolution of vulnerabilities on websites over continuous time. Specifically, we use hazard regress ion with a time-varying additive hazard function parameterized in a generalized linear form. The activation coefficients on each feature are continuous-time functions constrained with total variation penalty inspired by hacking campaigns. We show that the optimal solution is a 0th order spline with a finite number of adaptively chosen knots, and can be solved efficiently. Experiments on real data show that our method significantly outperforms classic methods while providing meaningful interpretability.
