Applications of fuzzy logic in heuristic control have been highly successful, but which aspects of fuzzy logic are essential to its practical usefulness? This paper shows that an ...
In order to scale with modern processors, planning algorithms must become multi-threaded. In this paper, we present parallel shared-memory algorithms for two problems that underli...
Robotic swarms, like all spatial computers, are a challenging environment for the execution of distributed consensus algorithms due to their scale, diameter, and frequent failures...
: Ranking theory delivers an account of iterated contraction; each ranking function induces a specific iterated contraction behavior. The paper shows how to reconstruct a ranking f...
In this paper we introduce Active Monte Carlo Recognition (AMCR), a new approach for object recognition. The method is based on seeding and propagating "relational" part...
