We present a fast method for locating iris features in frontal face images based on the Hough transform. It consists of an initial iris detection step and a tracking step which us...
Let G be a bipartite graph, and let e, i be two parallel convex curves; we study the question about whether G admits a planar straight-line drawing such that the vertices of one p...
Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) provide a rich framework for sequential decision-making under uncertainty in stochastic domains. However, solving a POMDP i...
The paper introduces and formalizes a distributed approach for the model-based monitoring of the execution of a plan, where concurrent actions are carried on by a team of mobile r...
The major obstacle to use multicores for real-time applications is that we may not predict and provide any guarantee on real-time properties of embedded software on such platforms...
