Self-replication, Evolvability and Asynchronicity in Stochastic Worlds
We consider temporal aspects of self-replication and evolvability – in particular, the massively asynchronous parallel and distributed nature of living systems. Formal views of s...

A Hardware-Independent Fast Logarithm Approximation with Adjustable Accuracy
Many multimedia applications rely on the computation of logarithms, for example, when estimating log-likelihoods for Gaussian Mixture Models. Knowing of the demand to compute loga...

Providing route directions: design of robot's utterance, gesture, and timing
Providing route directions is a complicated interaction. Utterances are combined with gestures and pronounced with appropriate timing. This study proposes a model for a robot that...
