— We study the motion planning problem for planar star-shaped manipulators. These manipulators are formed by joining k “legs” to a common point (like the thorax of an insect)...
Feature extraction is a process that extracts salient features from observed variables. It is considered a promising alternative to overcome the problems of weight and structure o...
The Self-Organizing Map is a popular neural network model for data analysis, for which a wide variety of visualization techniques exists. We present a novel technique that takes th...
Reasoning about events or temporal aspects is fundamental for modeling geographic phenomena. This work concerns the analysis of events as configurations of temporal intervals. It...
To support commonsense reasoning about space, we require a qualitative calculus of spatial entities and their relations. One requirement for such a calculus, which has not so far ...
