— It has been demonstrated in a number of robotic areas how the use of virtual fixtures improves task performance both in terms of execution time and overall precision, [1]. How...
We present a vision based, adaptive, decision theoretic model of human facial displays in interactions. The model is a partially observable Markov decision process, or POMDP. A POM...
In this paper, we consider the system-wide energy management problem for a set of periodic real-time tasks running on a DVS-enabled processor. Our solution uses a generalized powe...
With the advance of applications such as multimedia, imagelspeech processing and real-time AI, real-time computing models allowing to express the “timeliness versus precision”...
Agents often have preference models that are more complicated than minimizing the expected execution cost. In this paper, we study how they should act in the presence of uncertaint...
