Description
Modern measurement schemes for linear dynamical systems are typically designed so that different sensors can be scheduled to be used at each time step. To determine which sensors to use, various metrics have been suggested. One possible such metric is the observability of the system. Observability is a binary condition determining whether a finite number of measurements suffice to recover the initial state. However to employ observability for sensor scheduling, the binary definition needs to be expanded so that one can measure how observable a system is with a particular measurement scheme, i.e. one needs a metric of observability. Most methods utilizing an observability metric are about sensor selection and not for sensor scheduling. In this dissertation we present a new approach to utilize the observability for sensor scheduling by employing the condition number of the observability matrix as the metric and using column subset selection to create an algorithm to choose which sensors to use at each time step. To this end we use a rank revealing QR factorization algorithm to select sensors. Several numerical experiments are used to demonstrate the performance of the proposed scheme.

Description
The solution of the linear system of equations $Ax\approx b$ arising from the discretization of an ill-posed integral equation with a square integrable kernel is considered. The solution by means of Tikhonov regularization in which $x$ is found to as the minimizer of $J(x)=\{ \|Ax -b\|_2^2 + \lambda^2 \|L x\|_2^2\}$ introduces the unknown regularization parameter $\lambda$ which trades off the fidelity of the solution data fit and its smoothing norm, which is determined by the choice of $L$. The Generalized Discrepancy Principle (GDP) and Unbiased Predictive Risk Estimator (UPRE) are methods for finding $\lambda$ given prior conditions on the noise in the measurements $b$. Here we consider the case of $L=I$, and hence use the relationship between the singular value expansion and the singular value decomposition for square integrable kernels to prove that the GDP and UPRE estimates yield a convergent sequence for $\lambda$ with increasing problem size. Hence the estimate of $\lambda$ for a large problem may be found by down-sampling to a smaller problem, or to a set of smaller problems, and applying these estimators more efficiently on the smaller problems. In consequence the large scale problem can be solved in a single step immediately with the parameter found from the down sampled problem(s).

Description
During the inversion of discrete linear systems, noise in data can be amplified and result in meaningless solutions. To combat this effect, characteristics of solutions that are considered desirable are mathematically implemented during inversion. This is a process called regularization. The influence of the provided prior information is controlled by the introduction of non-negative regularization parameter(s). Many methods are available for both the selection of appropriate regularization parame- ters and the inversion of the discrete linear system. Generally, for a single problem there is just one regularization parameter. Here, a learning approach is considered to identify a single regularization parameter based on the use of multiple data sets de- scribed by a linear system with a common model matrix. The situation with multiple regularization parameters that weight different spectral components of the solution is considered as well. To obtain these multiple parameters, standard methods are modified for identifying the optimal regularization parameters. Modifications of the unbiased predictive risk estimation, generalized cross validation, and the discrepancy principle are derived for finding spectral windowing regularization parameters. These estimators are extended for finding the regularization parameters when multiple data sets with common system matrices are available. Statistical analysis of these estima- tors is conducted for real and complex transformations of data. It is demonstrated that spectral windowing regularization parameters can be learned from these new esti- mators applied for multiple data and with multiple windows. Numerical experiments evaluating these new methods demonstrate that these modified methods, which do not require the use of true data for learning regularization parameters, are effective and efficient, and perform comparably to a supervised learning method based on es- timating the parameters using true data. The theoretical developments are validated for one and two dimensional image deblurring. It is verified that the obtained estimates of spectral windowing regularization parameters can be used effectively on validation data sets that are separate from the training data, and do not require known data.
