This paper presents a novel method for illuminationinvariant and contrast preserving feature extraction, aimed at improving performance of tracking under complex light condition. ...
A robot, CWRU Robot V (Ajax) has been constructed based on the death head cockroach, Blaberus discoidalis. In an attempt to further take advantage of the neuromechanics of the ani...

Feature extraction is a process that extracts salient features from observed variables. It is considered a promising alternative to overcome the problems of weight and structure o...
We describe some extensions to the grid smoothing scheme described in [1, 2] that deal with the following issues: 1) the clustering effect of changing valence in an unstructured ...
We consider a non-preemptive, stochastic parallel machine scheduling model with the goal to minimize the weighted completion times of jobs. In contrast to the classical stochastic ...
