The action language A is a simple high-level language for describing transition systems. In this paper, we extend the action language A by allowing a unary modal operator in the u...
The problem of solving boolean combinations of difference constraints is at the core of many important techniques such as planning, scheduling, and model-checking of real-time syst...
We describe the ucpop partial order planning algorithm which handles a subset of Pednault's ADL action representation. In particular, ucpop operates with actions that have co...
In this paper we discuss a rigorous foundation of similarity reasoning based on the concept of utility. If utility is formulated in mathematical terms it can serve as a formal spe...
We present a new active active recognition scheme (using an uncalibrated camera) based on a new idea, appearancebased aspect graphs. The scheme is robust to background clutter, an...
