— We study hybrid search schemes for unstructured peer-to-peer networks. We quantify performance in terms of number of hits, network overhead, and response time. Our schemes comb...
While query expansion techniques have been shown to improve retrieval performance in a centralized setting, they have not been well studied in a federated setting. In this paper, ...
In this paper an omnidirectional Distributed Vision System (DVS) is presented. The presented DVS is able to learn to navigate a mobile robot in its working environment without any...
