We present a heuristic search algorithm for solving first-order Markov Decision Processes (FOMDPs). Our approach combines first-order state abstraction that avoids evaluating stat...
Deep Belief Networks (DBN) are generative neural network models with many layers of hidden explanatory factors, recently introduced by Hinton et al., along with a greedy layer-wis...
Most multimedia surveillance and monitoring systems nowadays utilize multiple types of sensors to detect events of interest as and when they occur in the environment. However, due...
