Contrastive Divergence (CD) is a popular method for estimating the parameters of Markov Random Fields (MRFs) by rapidly approximating an intractable term in the gradient of the lo...
Abstract—In contrast to standard fuzzy clustering, which optimizes a set of prototypes, one for each cluster, this paper studies fuzzy clustering without prototypes. Starting fro...
The computation of a rigid body transformation which optimally aligns a set of measurement points with a surface and related registration problems are studied from the viewpoint o...

We present a parameter synthesis algorithm for planar, higher pair mechanical systems. The input is a parametric model of a mechanical system (part shapes and configurations) with...
Exact cellular decompositions represent a robot's free space by dividing it into regions with simple structure such that the sum of the regions fills the free space. These de...
