Recent developments in reconfigurable hardware technologies have offered high-density high-speed devices with the ability for custom computing whilst maintaining the flexibility o...
In an object-relational database management system, a query optimizer requires users to provide cost models of userdefined functions. The traditional approach is analytical, that...
To navigate in unknown environments, mobile robots require the ability to build their own maps. A major problem for robot map building is that odometry-based dead reckoning cannot ...
Active models are widely used in applications like image segmentation and tracking. Region-based active models are known for robustness to weak edges and high computational comple...
