— Free-space dilation is an effective approach for narrow passage sampling, a well-recognized difficulty in probabilistic roadmap (PRM) planning. Key to this approach are method...
Visual vocabulary serves as a fundamental component in many computer vision tasks, such as object recognition, visual search, and scene modeling. While state-of-the-art approaches...
— This paper presents a method for a planar rigid body consisting of multiple convex bodies to explore an unknown planar workspace, i.e., an unknown configuration space diffeomo...
A hyperheuristic is a high level procedure which searches over a space of low level heuristics rather than directly over the space of problem solutions. The sequence of low level h...
Software Transactional Memory (STM) is a generic synchronization construct that enables automatic conversion of correct sequential objects into correct nonblocking concurrent obje...
