Compared to optimal planners, satisficing planners can solve much harder problems but may produce overly costly and long plans. Plan quality for satisficing planners has become in...
A new approach to the recognition of temporal behaviors and activities is presented. The fundamental idea, inspired by work in speech recognition, is to divide the inference probl...
We introduce a novel case study in which a group of miniaturized robots screen an environment for undesirable agents, and destroy them. Because miniaturized robots are usually end...
Soundness proofs of program logics such as Hoare logics and type systems are often made easier by decorating the operational semantics with information that is useful in the proof...
In functional programming, monadic characterizations of computational effects are normally understood denotationally: they describe how an effectful program can be systematically ...
