Detecting Temporal Logic Predicates on Distributed Computations
Abstract. We examine the problem of detecting nested temporal predicates given the execution trace of a distributed program. We present a technique that allows efficient detection ...

Distributed Online Learning of Central Pattern Generators in Modular Robots
Abstract. In this paper we study distributed online learning of locomotion gaits for modular robots. The learning is based on a stochastic approximation method, SPSA, which optimiz...
