A New Shape Descriptor for Object Recognition and Retrieval
Abstract. We present a new shape descriptor for measuring the similarity between shapes and exploit it in graphical object recognition and retrieval. By statistically integrating t...

Scalable Shape Sculpting via Hole Motion: Motion Planning in Lattice-constrained Modular Robots
— We describe a novel shape formation algorithm for ensembles of 2-dimensional lattice-arrayed modular robots, based on the manipulation of regularly shaped voids within the latt...

Empirical Characterization of Discretization Error in Gradient-Based Algorithms
Many self-organizing and self-adaptive systems use the biologically inspired “gradient” primitive, in which each device in a network estimates its distance to the closest devi...
