The MapReduce programming model simplifies large-scale data processing on commodity clusters by having users specify a map function that processes input key/value pairs to generate...
We present a system for fast model-based segmentation and 3D pose
estimation of specular objects using appearance based specular
features. We use observed (a) specular reflection...
Abstract Traditional nearest-neighbor (NN) search is based on two basic indexing approaches: object-based indexing and solution-based indexing. The former is constructed based on t...

Using 802.11 concurrently for communications and positioning is problematic, especially if location-based services (e.g., indoor navigation) are concurrently executed with real-ti...
— We present a modular robot design inspired by the creation of complex structures and functions in biology via deformation. Our design is based on the Tensegrity model of cellul...
