Modeling communications in wireless networks is a challenging task since it asks for a simple mathematical object on which efficient algorithms can be designed, but that must also...
A central tenet of embodied artificial intelligence is that intelligent behavior arises out of the coupled dynamics between an agent’s body, brain and environment. It follows t...
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a novel and fast method to localize and track needles during image-guided interventions. Our proposed method is comprised of framework of needle...
— Most robotic vision algorithms are proposed by envisaging robots operating in structured environments where the world is assumed to be rigid. These algorithms fail to provide o...
Commodity computer clusters are often composed of hundreds of computing nodes. These generally off-the-shelf systems are not designed for high reliability. Node failures therefore...
