Recent results have established that a variety of voting rules are computationally hard to manipulate in the worst-case; this arguably provides some guarantee of resistance to man...
— We present an approach to the problem of 3D map building in urban settings for service robots, using threedimensional laser range scans as the main data input. Our system is ba...

Abstract-- Information theory provides a novel perspective on passive sonar performance analysis. This approach begins by partitioning the search space and then considers the probl...
We demonstrate how to use placement to ameliorate the predicted repeater explosion problem caused by poor interconnect scaling. We achieve repeater count reduction by dynamically ...

We investigate a new, convex relaxation of an expectation-maximization (EM) variant that approximates a standard objective while eliminating local minima. First, a cautionary resu...
