— The problem of simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is one of the most studied in the robotics literature. Most existing approaches, however, focus on scenarios where l...
Connectivity and neighborhood are fundamental topological properties of objects in pictures. Since the input for any image analysis algorithm is a digital image, which does not ne...
Geo-replicated services need an effective way to direct client requests to a particular location, based on performance, load, and cost. This paper presents DONAR, a distributed sy...

When trying to recover 3D structure from a set of images, the most di cult problem is establishing the correspondence between the measurements. Most existing approaches assume tha...

Establishing and maintaining cooperation is an enduring problem in multi-agent systems and, although several solutions exist, the increased use of online trading systems, peerto-p...
Computer aided interactive drama has been widely applied for entertainment and pedagogy. Most existing approaches for authoring interactive drama use either story-centric or chara...
Abstract. Individual privacy will be at risk if a published data set is not properly de-identified. k-anonymity is a major technique to de-identify a data set. A more general view ...

Abstract. The expressiveness of a lot of image analysis algorithms depends on the question whether shape information is preserved during digitization. Most existing approaches to a...
Topology is a fundamental property of shapes in pictures. Since the input for any image analysis algorithm is a digital image, which does not need to have the same topological char...
Most existing approaches for learning action models work by extracting suitable low-level features and then training appropriate classifiers. Such approaches require large amount...
