In many approaches for qualitative spatial reasoning, navigation of an agent in a more or less static environment is considered (e.g. in the double-cross calculus [12]). However, i...
In this paper we present a general, flexible framework for learning mappings from images to actions by interacting with the environment. The basic idea is to introduce a feature-...
Legged robots are useful in tasks such as search and rescue because they can effectively navigate on rugged terrain. However, it is difficult to design controllers for them that ...
This paper discusses a novel distributed adaptive algorithm and representation used to construct populations of adaptive Web agents. These InfoSpiders browse networked information ...
The development and expression of many higher level cognitive functions, such as imitation, spatial perception, and tool-use relies on a multi-modal representation of the body kno...
