An optimal filtering algorithm for non-parametric observation models in robot localization
— The lack of a parameterized observation model in robot localization using occupancy grids requires the application of sampling-based methods, or particle filters. This work ad...

Model-based approximate querying in sensor networks
Abstract Declarative queries are proving to be an attractive paradigm for interacting with networks of wireless sensors. The metaphor that "the sensornet is a database" i...
