A hierarchical framework for the recognition of complex deformable shapes is developed. In extension to traditional approaches an additional layer of control is introduced to guid...
Abstract. In this paper, the optimization of the Berth Allocation Problem (BAP) is transformed into a multiple stage decision making procedure and a new stochastic beam search algo...
Despite the effectiveness of search engines, the persistently increasing amount of web data continuously obscures the search task. Efforts have thus concentrated on personalized...
We consider fast two-sided error-tolerant search that is robust against errors both on the query side (type alogrithm, find documents with algorithm) as well as on the document si...
This paper describes maximum likelihood estimation techniques for performing rover localization in natural terrain by matching range maps. An occupancy map of the local terrain is...
