KEYNOTE LECTURE

The Impulse-Response Scandal and The Foundations Of Linear System Theory

Abstract: It is a widely-held belief that the main textbook conclusions concerning continuous time linear systems obtained using Dirac delta-function arguments can be shown to be valid using the mathematical theory of distributions. But this belief is unwarranted. For example, in a recent study of multidimensional input-output maps representing linear shift-invariant systems that take a set of continuous-space signals into itself, it was shown that the family contains maps whose impulse response is the zero function, but which take certain inputs into nonzero outputs. In this connection, we give an expression for the most general input-output map associated with the members of a certain important large family of multidimensional linear systems. This expression is a uniform limit of a convolution. We also give a necessary and sufficient condition under which the limit can be written as a convolution, and we relate this to the concepts of an impulse response and a q-response limit, and to the flawed concept of the Dirac function. The talk will be addressed to a general circuits and systems audience, and will include a pertinent historical survey as well as material concerning engineering education.

Abstract: Nowadays, scientists, engineers and businessmen working in diverse fields have one problem in common: they all have to deal with large datasets which arise in a broad spectrum of areas, including finance, banking, manufacturing, supply chain, medicine and biotechnology, telecommunications, military systems, etc. In many cases, in order to discover useful information from a certain dataset, mathematical programming approaches are successfully applied. We discuss one of the promising research directions in data mining - using network-based models for data analysis and decision making. In many practical situations, a real-world dataset can be represented as a large graph (network) with certain attributes associated with its vertices and edges. These attributes may contain specific information characterizing the given application, which often provides a new insight into the internal structure and patterns of the data. The considered examples include telecommunications, biomedicine, and finance.
