Reliable and efficient navigation with a humanoid robot is a difficult task. First, the motion commands are executed rather inaccurately due to backlash in the joints or foot slipp...
As robots and humans move towards sharing the same environment, the need for safety in robotic systems is of growing importance. Towards this goal of human-friendly robotics, a rob...
Identifying the set of resources that are expected to receive the majority of requests in the near future, namely hot set, is at the basis of most content management strategies of...
Next-generation high throughput sequencing instruments are capable of generating hundreds of millions of reads in a single run. Mapping those reads to a reference genome is an ext...
Local search (LS) algorithms are among the most powerful techniques for solving computationally hard problems in combinatorial optimization. These algorithms could be viewed as &q...
