A new information-theoretic approach is presented for finding the pose of an object in an image. The technique does not require information about the surface properties of the ob...
In timed, zero-sum games, the goal is to maximize the probability of winning, which is not necessarily the same as maximizing our expected reward. We consider cumulative intermedi...
In sequential decision-making problems formulated as Markov decision processes, state-value function approximation using domain features is a critical technique for scaling up the...
Many visual search and matching systems represent images using sparse sets of "visual words": descriptors that have been quantized by assignment to the best-matching symb...
When exploring a game over a large strategy space, it may not be feasible or cost-effective to evaluate the payoff of every relevant strategy profile. For example, determining a p...
