We analyze and extend a recently proposed model of linguistic diffusion in social networks, to analytically derive time to convergence, and to account for the innovation phase of...
Abstract-- In this paper we consider the problem of monitoring a known set of stationary features (or locations of interest) in an environment. To observe a feature, a robot must v...
The main question we address is: what is the minimal information required to generate closed, non-intersecting planar boundaries? For this paper we restrict ‘shape’ to this mea...
In this paper, we bring out a new density-based clustering initialization algorithm which is invariant to the scale factor. Instead of using the scale factor while the cluster ini...
—Distribution system operating environments are changing rapidly. For example, with the steady and significant increase in dispersed generation expected, planning and operating a...
