In this paper, we identify and solve a new type of spatial queries, called continuous visible nearest neighbor (CVNN) search. Given a data set P, an obstacle set O, and a query li...
Many settings of unsupervised learning can be viewed as quantization problems — the minimization of the expected quantization error subject to some restrictions. This allows the ...

A longstanding goal in planning research is the ability to generalize plans developed for some set of environments to a new but similar environment, with minimal or no replanning....

All approaches to optimal experiment design for control have so far focused on deriving an input signal (or input signal spectrum) that minimizes some control-oriented measure of ...
The syntactic approach to epistemic logic avoids the logical omniscience problem by taking knowledge as primary rather than as defined in terms of possible worlds. In this study, ...
