In this paper we introduce a formalism which combines reliability and complexity as performance measures for Intelligent Machines. For a given desired reliability, di erent algori...
A control system architecture is described for an autonomous flying vehicle. The vehicle, equipped with fourteen sensors, uses a model helicopter as an airframe. The control syste...
We present an approach for solving the path planning problem for a mobile robot operating in an unknown, three dimensional environment containing obstacles of arbitrary shape. The...
