We propose a ray-based segmentation method for color images. A segment is represented by a centroid and evenlydistributed rays shooting out from it. First, a bottom-up low-level b...
— Delegating the coordination role to proxy agents can improve the overall outcome of the task at the expense of cognitive overload due to switching subtasks. Stability and commi...
