Qualitative Analysis of Partially-Observable Markov Decision Processes
We study observation-based strategies for partially-observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) with parity objectives. An observationbased strategy relies on partial information...

Shapes as empirical distributions
We address the problem of shape based classification. We interpret the shape of an object as a probability distribution governing the location of the points of the object. An imag...
