In order to scale with modern processors, planning algorithms must become multi-threaded. In this paper, we present parallel shared-memory algorithms for two problems that underli...
Inference in graphical models has emerged as a promising technique for planning. A recent approach to decision-theoretic planning in relational domains uses forward inference in d...
In this paper we deal with the problem of finding an optimal query execution plan in database systems. We improve the analysis of a polynomial-time approximation algorithm due to M...
We develop a methodology for evaluating a decision strategy generated by a stochastic optimization model. The methodology is based on a pilot study in which we estimate the distri...

In this paper we describe a system that combines human input and automatic grasp planning for controlling an artificial hand, with applications in the area of hand neuroprosthetic...
