This paper aims at proposing a general formal framework for dialogue between autonomous agents which are looking for a common agreement about a collective choice. The proposed set...
Hybrid transition systems in their full generality describe continuous behaviour by a set of equations in each mode an algebraic or di erential equation for each state variable in ...
Abstract. In functional programming languages the use of infinite structures is common practice. For total correctness of programs dealing with infinite structures one must guarant...
Today many formalisms exist for specifying complex Markov chains. In contrast, formalisms for specifying rewards, enabling the analysis of long-run average performance properties,...
This paper presents novel algorithms that perform motion estimation for video processing and compression. We observe that "smoothness" is a very important and intuitive ...
