Abstract. Many agent coordination problems can be modeled as distributed constraint optimization problems (DCOPs). ADOPT is an asynchronous and distributed search algorithm that is...
We present the first local approximation schemes for maximum independent set and minimum vertex cover in unit disk graphs. In the graph model we assume that each node knows its geo...
The ICP (Iterative Closest Point) algorithm is the de facto standard for geometric alignment of threedimensional models when an initial relative pose estimate is available. The ba...
This paper describes a new approach for detecting objects based on measuring the spatial consistency between different parts of an object. These parts are pre-defined on a set of...
The study of synchronization has received much attention in a variety of applications, ranging from coordinating sensors in wireless networks to models of fireflies flashing in...
