Peg-in-hole insertion is not only a longstanding problem in robotics but the most common automated mechanical assembly task [10]. In this paper we present a high precision, self-c...
We investigate a framework where agents search for satisfying products by using referrals from other agents. Our model of a mechanism for transmitting word-of-mouth and the result...
— Mobile robots have to detect and handle a variety of potential hazards to navigate autonomously. We present a real-time stereo vision based mapping algorithm for identifying an...
Although Internet and WWW phenomena are often described using spatial metaphors, the commonest means of geographic orientation - the map - is little used in online navigation. Map...
In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), sensors' locations play a critical role in many applications. Having a GPS receiver on every sensor node is costly. In the past, a number ...
