Near-Optimal Sensor Placements in Gaussian Processes: Theory, Efficient Algorithms and Empirical Studies
When monitoring spatial phenomena, which can often be modeled as Gaussian processes (GPs), choosing sensor locations is a fundamental task. There are several common strategies to ...

Guarding curvilinear art galleries with edge or mobile guards
In this paper we consider the problem of monitoring an art gallery modeled as a polygon, the edges of which are arcs of curves. We consider two types of guards: edge guards (these...
