Speculative planning with delegation

This paper presents a novel method of collaborative problem solving for intelligent agents in virtual environments. We describe a planner for STRIPS-like domains enhanced by techniques of "delegated computing". Instead of having one central planner with co ...

Open Challenges in SLAM: An Optimal Solution Based on Shift and Rotation Invariants

Roland Siegwart, Nicola Tomatis

This paper starts with a discussion of the open challenges in the SLAM problem. In our opinion they can be grouped in two main and distinct areas: convergence of the built map and computation requirement for real world application. To deal with the previou ...

Comparison of fully coupled approaches for approximating nonlinear transport and reaction problems

David Andrew Barry

The purpose of this work is to evaluate the computational efficiency of fully coupled approaches for approximating a common class of nonlinear, two-phase advective–dispersive– reactive equations. The general problem considered includes homogeneous phase ch ...

SmartClients: Constraint satisfaction as a paradigm for scaleable intelligent information systems

Boi Faltings, Pearl Pu Faltings

Many information systems are used in a problem solving context. Examples are travel planning systems, catalogs in electronic commerce, or agenda planning systems. They can be made more useful by integrating problem-solving capabilities into the information ...
