This paper describes a decentralized consistency protocol for survivable storage that exploits local data versioning within each storage-node. Such versioning enables the protocol...

In this paper, we present a new method to obtain the contours of color faces. First, we introduce a new nonlinear skin classifier to detect the human skin information in images. T...
Networks of communicating finite-state machines equipped with local clocks generate timed MSCs. We consider the problem of checking whether these timed MSCs are "consistent&qu...
Multiagent learning di ers from standard machine learning in that most existing learning methods assume that all knowledge is available locally in a single agent. In multiagent sy...
We present an approach to spatial inference which is based on the procedural semantics of spatial relations. In contrast to qualitative reasoning, we do not use discrete symbolic m...
