The prevalence and distribution of OMLs were elucidated in an eastern area of China, and the importance of tobacco and alcohol in the pathogenesis of OMLs was evidenced. Our data have provided baseline information about epidemiologic aspects of OMLs that can be valuable in organized program targeting on oral health and hygiene.
In this correspondence, a finite-horizon discrete H1 filter design with a linear quadratic (LQ) game approach is presented. The exogenous inputs composed of the "hostile" noise signals and system initial condition are assumed to be finite energy signals with unknown statistics. The design criterion is to minimize the worst possible amplification of the estimation error signals in terms of the exogenous inputs, which is different from the classical minimum variance estimation error criterion for the modified Wiener or Kalman filter design. The approach can show how far the estimation error can be reduced under an existence condition on the solution to a corresponding Riccati equation. A numerical example is given to compare the performance of the H 1 filter with that of the conventional Kalman filter.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
