Abstract. A solid object in 3-dimensional space may be described by a collection of all its topologically distinct 2-dimensional appearances, its aspect graph. In this paper, we st...
Traditional quantum state tomography requires a number of measurements that grows exponentially with the number of qubits n. But using ideas from computational learning theory, we...
In this paper, we apply the auction-based theories in economics to camera networks. We develop a set of auction protocols to do camera active control (pan/tilt/zoom) intelligently...
Convergence is often the key liveness property for distributed systems that interact with physical processes. Techniques for proving convergence (asymptotic stability) have been ex...
We describe a randomized algorithm that, given an integer a, produces a certificate that the integer is not a pure power of an integer in expected (log a)1+o(1) bit operations unde...
