Stochastic strategies for a swarm robotic assembly system
— We present a decentralized, scalable approach to assembling a group of heterogeneous parts into different products using a swarm of robots. While the assembly plans are predete...

Using stochastic gradient-descent scheme in appearance model based face tracking
— Active appearance model (AAM) has been widely used in face tracking and recognition. However, accuracy and efficiency are always two main challenges with the AAM search. The pa...

Constrained Stochastic Games in Wireless Networks
—We consider the situation where N nodes share a common access point. With each node i there is an associated buffer and channel state that change in time. Node i dynamically cho...

An Integrated White+Black Box Approach for Designing and Tuning Stochastic Local Search
Abstract. Stochastic Local Search (SLS) is a simple and effective paradigm for attacking a variety of Combinatorial (Optimization) Problems (COP). However, it is often non-trivial...
