Nodes in an ad hoc grid are characterized by heterogeneity, autonomy, and volatility. These characteristics result in varying workload of the resource manager in the ad hoc grid. ...
— This paper presents an algorithmic framework for conducting search and identification missions using multiple heterogeneous agents. Dynamic objects of type “neutral” or ...
— We present a method for reconstructing 3D models of tree branch structure from laser range data. Our approach is probabilistic, and uses a generative model of a tree to guide a...
— This paper describes the design of a motion control algorithm for a humanoid robotic head, which consists of a neck with four degrees of freedom and two eyes (a stereo pair sys...
