Simple Robots with Minimal Sensing: From Local Visibility to Global Geometry
We consider problems of geometric exploration and selfdeployment for simple robots that can only sense the combinatorial (non-metric) features of their surroundings. Even with suc...

JADAMILU: a software code for computing selected eigenvalues of large sparse symmetric matrices
A new software code for computing selected eigenvalues and associated eigenvectors of a real symmetric matrix is described. The eigenvalues are either the smallest or those closes...

FAB-MAP: Appearance-Based Place Recognition and Mapping using a Learned Visual Vocabulary Model
We present an overview of FAB-MAP, an algorithm for place recognition and mapping developed for infrastructure-free mobile robot navigation in large environments. The system allow...

A parallel preconditioning strategy for efficient transistor-level circuit simulation
A parallel computing approach for large-scale SPICE-accurate circuit simulation is described that is based on a new preconditioned iterative solver. The preconditioner involves the...

On the computational power of oblivious robots: forming a series of geometric patterns
We study the computational power of a distributed system consisting of simple autonomous robots moving on the plane. The robots are endowed with visual perception but do not have ...
