Robert Liptser
Robert Sh. Liptser ( rus, Роберт Шевелевич Липцер; he, רוברט ליפצר , 20 March 1936 – 2 January 2019) was a Russian-Israeli mathematician who made contributions to the theory and applications of stochastic processes, in particular to martingales, stochastic control and nonlinear filtering. Biography Liptser was born in Kirovograd, Ukraine and spent his youth in Odessa, Ukraine. In 1959 he graduated with the M.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from Moscow Aviation Institute and in 1965 he graduated with the second M.Sc in mathematics from Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of Moscow State University.

Château De Chenonceau
The Château de Chenonceau () is a French château spanning the river Cher (river), Cher, near the small village of Chenonceaux, Indre-et-Loire, Centre-Val de Loire. It is one of the best-known châteaux of the Loire Valley. The estate of Chenonceau is first mentioned in writing in the 11th century.See catalog item: "Novak 164.

The current château was built in 1514–1522 on the foundations of an old mill and was later extended to span the river. The bridge over the river was built (1556-1559) to designs by the French Renaissance architect Philibert de l'Orme, and the Long gallery, gallery on the bridge, built from 1570 to 1576 to designs by Jean Bullant.

Odessa
Odesa (also spelled Odessa) is the third most populous city and municipality in Ukraine and a major seaport and transport hub located in the south-west of the country, on the northwestern shore of the Black Sea. The city is also the administrative centre of the Odesa Raion and Odesa Oblast, as well as a multiethnic cultural centre. As of January 2021 Odesa's population was approximately In classical antiquity a large Greek settlement existed at its location. The first chronicle mention of the Slavic settlement-port of Kotsiubijiv, which was part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, dates back to 1415, when a ship was sent from here to Constantinople by sea. After a period of Lithuanian Grand Duchy control, the port and its surroundings became part of the domain of the Ottomans in 1529, under the name Hacibey, and remained there until the empire's defeat in the Russo-Turkish War of 1792. In 1794, the modern city of Odesa was founded by a decree of the Russian empress Cather ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Probability Theorists
Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 indicates impossibility of the event and 1 indicates certainty."Kendall's Advanced Theory of Statistics, Volume 1: Distribution Theory", Alan Stuart and Keith Ord, 6th Ed, (2009), .William Feller, ''An Introduction to Probability Theory and Its Applications'', (Vol 1), 3rd Ed, (1968), Wiley, . The higher the probability of an event, the more likely it is that the event will occur. A simple example is the tossing of a fair (unbiased) coin. Since the coin is fair, the two outcomes ("heads" and "tails") are both equally probable; the probability of "heads" equals the probability of "tails"; and since no other outcomes are possible, the probability of either "heads" or "tails" is 1/2 (which could also be written as 0.5 or 50%). These con ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Separation Principle In Stochastic Control
The separation principle is one of the fundamental principles of stochastic control theory, which states that the problems of optimal control and state estimation can be decoupled under certain conditions. In its most basic formulation it deals with a linear stochastic system :\begin dx & =A(t)x(t)\,dt+B_1(t)u(t)\,dt+B_2(t)\,dw \\ dy & =C(t)x(t)\,dt +D(t)\,dw \end with a state process x, an output process y and a control u, where w is a vector-valued Wiener process, x(0) is a zero-mean Gaussian random vector independent of w, y(0)=0, and A, B_1, B_2, C, D are matrix-valued functions which generally are taken to be continuous of bounded variation. Moreover, DD' is nonsingular on some interval ,T/math>. The problem is to design an output feedback law \pi:\, y \mapsto u which maps the observed process y to the control input u in a nonanticipatory manner so as to minimize the functional : J(u) = \mathbb\left\, where \mathbb denotes expected value, prime (') denotes transpose. ...

Institute For Information Transmission Problems
An institute is an organisational body created for a certain purpose. They are often research organisations ( research institutes) created to do research on specific topics, or can also be a professional body. In some countries, institutes can be part of a university or other institutions of higher education, either as a group of departments or an autonomous educational institution without a traditional university status such as a "university institute" (see Institute of Technology). In some countries, such as South Korea and India, private schools are sometimes referred to as institutes, and in Spain, secondary schools are referred to as institutes. Historically, in some countries institutes were educational units imparting vocational training and often incorporating libraries, also known as mechanics' institutes. The word "institute" comes from a Latin word ''institutum'' meaning "facility" or "habit"; from ''instituere'' meaning "build", "create", "raise" or "educate". ...
