Sketchy planners are designed to achieve goals in realistically complex, time-pressured, and uncertain task environments. However, the ability to manage multiple, potentially inte...
People frequently complain that it is too difficult to figure out how to get computers to do what they want. However, with a computer system that actually tries to understand what...
For mobile robots to be successful, they have to navigate safely in populated and dynamic environments. While recent research has led to a variety of localization methods that can...

We discuss what constitutes an integrated system in AI, and why AI researchers should be interested in building and studying them. Taking integrated systems to be ones that integr...
In design, multiple disparate goals must be addressed simultaneously. It is the thesis of this work that problems in two-dimensional layout design can be solved by collaboration a...
We consider computational issues in combining logical knowledge bases represented by their characteristic models; in particular, we study taking their logical intersection. We pre...
