We give a simple combinatorial proof of the Chernoff-Hoeffding concentration bound [Che52, Hoe63], which says that the sum of independent {0, 1}-valued random variables is highly ...
Abstract— We present an approach for smooth and collisionfree navigation of multiple mobile robots amongst each other. Each robot senses its surroundings and acts independently w...

The extraction of optimal features, in a classification sense, is still quite challenging in the context of large-scale classification problems (such as visual recognition), inv...
Abstract— This paper describes a feasibility study for a selfcontained, wearable full-body motion capture system based on time-of-flight measurements that provide absolute dista...

Sensor deployment is a critical issue because it affects the cost and detection capability of a wireless sensor network. In this work, we consider two related deployment problems: ...
