Face Detection Based on Generic Local Descriptors and Spatial Constraints
In this paper we present an algorithm for face detection that is based on generic local descriptors (e.g. eyes). A generic descriptor captures the distribution of individual descr...

Entropy-based sensor selection heuristic for target localization
We propose an entropy-based sensor selection heuristic for localization. Given 1) a prior probability distribution of the target location, and 2) the locations and the sensing mod...

Many Hands Make Light Work: Localized Satisfiability for Multi-Context Systems
In this paper, we tackle the satisfiability problem for multi-context systems. First, we establish a satisfiability algorithm based on an encoding into propositional logic. Then, w...

Optimal wireless networks based on local channel state information
We consider distributed algorithms to optimize random access multihop wireless networks in the presence of fading. Since the associated optimization problem is neither convex nor ...

On the locality of bounded growth
Many large-scale networks such as ad hoc and sensor networks, peer-to-peer networks, or the Internet have the property that the number of independent nodes does not grow arbitrari...
