"Method and system for analog beamforming in wireless communication systems" "The present invention is related to a method of analog beamforming in a wireless communication system, whereby said system has a plurality of transmit antennas and receive antennas. The method comprises the steps of determining transmit beamforming coefficients and receive beamforming coefficients by : - determining information representative of communication channels formed between a transmit antenna and a receive antenna of the plurality of antennas, - defining a set of coefficients representing jointly the transmit and the receive beamforming coefficients, - determining a beamforming cost ..." "Method for system scenario based design of dynamic embedded systems" "Methods are disclosed for system scenario-based design for an embedded platform whereon a dynamic application is implemented. The application meets at least one guaranteed constraint. Temporal correlations are assumed in the behavior of internal data variables used in the application, with the internal data variables representing parameters used for executing a portion of the application. An example method includes determining a distribution over time of an N-dimensional cost function, with N an integer number N≧1, corresponding to the implementation on the platform for a set of combinations ..." "Methods, controllers and systems for the control of distribution systems using a neural network architecture" "Bert Claessens" "A deep approximation neural network architecture is described which extrapolates data over unseen states for demand response applications in order to control distribution systems like product distribution systems of which energy distribution systems, e.g. heat or electrical power distribution, are one example. The present invention describes a model-free control technique mainly in the form of Reinforcement Learning (RL) whereby a controller learns from interaction with the system to be controlled to control product distribution s of which energy distribution systems, e.g. heat or electrical ..." "Optical design methods for imaging systems and optical systems designed therewith" "The present invention provides methods to design centered imaging systems by solving differential equations derived from Fermat's principle. These imaging systems consist of a sequence of (moveable or fixed) spherical or aspherical surfaces, or combinations thereof. The power series solution approach allow calculating of a predefined number of surfaces parameters equal to a number of selected aberration terms to vanish nominally. In addition, the methods provide mapping functions coefficients that allow describing exactly where arbitrary rays intersect each individual surface."
