—Using directional antennas to conserve bandwidth and energy consumption in ad hoc wireless networks has attracted much attention of the research community in recent years. Howev...
In the course of developing a system for fitting smooth curves to camera input we have developed several direct (i.e. noniterative) methods for fitting a shape (line, circle, conic...
is the level of abstraction: a logical model ignores the constraints that the underlying database technology imposes and presents a simplified view. Sometimes physical database des...
This paper introduces a novel algorithm for the nonnegative matrix factorization and completion problem, which aims to find nonnegative matrices X and Y from a subset of entries o...
— This paper addresses the problem of planning for goal directed navigation in the environment that contains a number of possible adversary locations. It first shows that common...
