This paper tackles an important aspect of the variational problem underlying active contours: optimization by gradient flows. Classically, the definition of a gradient depends d...

The UQBE is a mashup tool for non-programmers that supports query-by-example (QBE) over a schema made up by the user without knowing the schema of the original sources. Based on a...
We analyze the conditions for agency in natural and artificial systems. In the case of basic (natural) autonomous systems, self-construction and activity in the environment are two...
This paper proposes an algorithm that drives a unicycle type robot to a desired path, including obstacle avoidance capabilities. The path-following control design relies on Lyapun...
This paper examines the problem of estimating linear time-invariant state-space system models. In particular it addresses the parametrization and numerical robustness concerns tha...
