We present a hierarchical planning system and its application to robotic manipulation. The novel features of the system are: 1) it finds high-quality kinematic solutions to task-l...
Approximate linear programming (ALP) offers a promising framework for solving large factored Markov decision processes (MDPs) with both discrete and continuous states. Successful ...
— The rapid transit network design problem considers at upper level the list of potential transit corridors and stations to design the network as a discrete space of alternatives...
Let Sn denote the symmetric group on {1, . . . , n} and Sn-1 the stabilizer subgroup of n. We derive algorithms for computing Fourier transforms of left and right Sn-1-invariant s...
Abstract. A new strategy to avoid the order reduction of Runge-Kutta methods when integrating linear, autonomous, nonhomogeneous initial boundary value problems is presented. The s...
