This paper develops a model for exceptions and an approach for incorporating them in commitment protocols among autonomous agents. Modeling and handling exceptions is critical for...
Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) methods such as Locality Sensitive Hashing, Semantic Hashing, and Spectral Hashing, provide computationally ecient procedures for nding objects...
The“wisdom of crowds”is accomplishing tasks that are cumbersome for individuals yet cannot be fully automated by means of specialized computer algorithms. One such task is the...

A new approach to tracking weakly modeled objects in a semantically rich domain is presented. We define a closed-world as a space-time region of an image sequence in which the co...
