We introduce a new task-independent framework to model top-down overt visual attention based on graphical models for probabilistic inference and reasoning. We describe a Dynamic B...
Abstract. To realize Weiser’s vision of ubiquitous computing, a popular approach has been to create so-called smart living objects, which are everyday objects in our living envir...
We study how to find plans that maximize the expected total utility for a given MDP, a planning objective that is important for decision making in high-stakes domains. The optimal...
We present a lightweight search function for physical objects in instrumented environments. Objects are tagged with optical markers which are scanned by a steerable camera and pro...
We present a functional model for the analysis of large volumes of detailed transactional data, accumulated over time. In our model, the data schema is an acyclic graph with a sing...
