Recent research in decision theoretic planning has focussedon making the solution of Markov decision processes (MDPs) more feasible. We develop a family of algorithms for structur...

We describe a system called Tileworld, which consists of a simulated robot agent and a simulated environment which is both dynamic and unpredictable. Both the agent and the enviro...
The primary target of this work is human-robot collaboration, especially for service robots in complicated application scenarios. Three assumptions and four requirements are ident...

A purely relational account of the true XQuery semantics can turn any relational database system into an XQuery processor. Compiling nested expressions of the fully compositional X...
The cost of a query plan depends on many parameters, such as predicate selectivities and available memory, whose values may not be known at optimization time. Parametric query opt...
