Navigating by stigmergy: A realization on an RFID floor for minimalistic robots
Abstract— Stigmergy is a mechanism that allows the coordination of actions within the same agent or across different agents by means of traces left in the environment. We propose...

Efficient computation of the binary vector that maximizes a rank-deficient quadratic form
The maximization of a full-rank quadratic form over a finite alphabet is NP-hard in both a worst-case sense and an average sense. Interestingly, if the rank of the form is not a ...
