Automatic Augmentation and Meshing of Sparse 3D Scene Structure
We propose a novel method of robustly and automatically creating surface meshes from the very sparsely populated 3D point clouds typically produced by Structure from Motion algori...

Fitness uniform deletion: a simple way to preserve diversity
A commonly experienced problem with population based optimisation methods is the gradual decline in population diversity that tends to occur over time. This can slow a system’s ...

The entropy penalized minimum energy estimator
This paper addresses the state estimation problem of nonlinear systems. We formulate the problem using a minimum energy estimator (MEE) approach and propose an entropy penalized sc...

Reinforcement Learning for Mixed Open-loop and Closed-loop Control
Closed-loop control relies on sensory feedback that is usually assumed to be free. But if sensing incurs a cost, it may be coste ective to take sequences of actions in open-loop m...
