In anaerobic digestion plants, it is often crucial to measure state variables such as the substrate or biomass densities for monitoring the process. But, this task can be very difficult to achieve because the sensors are sometimes unavailable, unreliable or very expensive. For these reasons software sensors can be sought instead, using indirect mea...

In this article, we study Wasserstein-type metrics and corresponding barycenters for mixtures of a chosen subset of probability measures called atoms hereafter. In particular, this works extends what was proposed by Delon and Desolneux [10] for mixtures of gaussian measures to other mixtures. We first prove in a general setting that for a set of at...

Explicit formulas expressing the solution to non-autonomous differential equations are of great importance in many application domains such as control theory or numerical operator splitting. In particular, intrinsic formulas allowing to decouple time-dependent features from geometry-dependent features of the solution have been extensively studied. ...

Minibatch decomposition methods for empirical risk minimization are commonly analysed in a stochastic approximation setting, also known as sampling with replacement. On the other hands modern implementations of such techniques are incremental: they rely on sampling without replacement, for which available analysis are much scarcer. We provide conve...

We consider the problem of jointly optimizing the daily production planning and energy supply management of an industrial complex, with manufacturing processes, renewable energies and energy storage system. It is naturally formulated as a mixed-integer multistage stochastic problem. This problem is challenging for three main reasons: there is a lar...

In the last couple of years, performances of light soaring aircraft (para gliders, hang gliders, or light sailplanes) have increased significantly, allowing pilots to fly great distances using only the convective energy of the atmosphere. This activity, called "Cross-Country flying" or "soaring", requires topological and aerological knowledge and a...

We describe microbial growth and production of value-added chemical compounds in a continuous bioreactor through a dynamical system and we study the local stability of the equilibrium of interest by means of the classical Routh-Hurwitz criterion. The mathematical model considers various biological and structural parameters related to the bioprocess...

In this paper, we investigate optimal control problems governed by semilinear elliptic variational inequalities involving constraints on the state, and more precisely the obstacle problem. Since we adopt a numerical point of view, we first relax the feasible domain of the problem, then using both mathematical programming methods and penalization me...

This paper addresses the output feedback stabilization of an ODE-PDE cascade. The PDE takes the form of a 1-D reactiondiffusion equation. The output of the ODE enters into the PDE via a Dirichlet/Neumann/Robin boundary condition. It is assumed that both the output of the ODE and the output of the PDE, selected as a boundary Dirichlet trace, are ava...
