In this article, we propose a random walk-based model to predict legislators’ votes on a set of bills. In particular, we first convert roll call data, i.e. the recorded votes a...
Abstract— This paper presents a randomized manipulation planner for a multi-fingered hand by switching contact modes. Manipulation planning for such a system should consider cha...
— Randomly expanding trees are very effective in exploring high-dimensional spaces. Consequently, they are a powerful algorithmic approach to sampling-based single-query motion p...
— Sampling-based motion planners are often used to solve very high-dimensional planning problems. Many recent algorithms use projections of the state space to estimate properties...
We propose a means of extending Conditional Random Field modeling to decision-theoretic planning where valuation is dependent upon fullyobservable factors. Representation is discu...
