Decentralized Markov Decision Processes with Event-Driven Interactions
Decentralized MDPs provide a powerful formal framework for planning in multi-agent systems, but the complexity of the model limits its usefulness. We study in this paper a class o...

Detecting Illumination in Images
In this paper we present a surprisingly simple yet powerful method for detecting illumination--determining which pixels are lit by different lights--in images. Our method is based...
