This paper addresses the problem of maintaining an autonomous robotic vehicle in a moving triangular formation by regulating its position with respect to two leader vehicles. The robotic vehicle has no a priori knowledge of the path described by the leader ...
For the recently proposed model of symbol-pair channels, we advance the pair-error coding theory with algebraic cyclic-code constructions and asymptotic bounds on code rates. Cyclic codes for pair-errors are constructed by a careful use of duals of known t ...

In this work, we study the task of distributed optimization over a network of learners in which each learner possesses a convex cost function, a set of affine equality constraints, and a set of convex inequality constraints. We propose a distributed diffus ...
Convolutional low-density parity-check (LDPC) ensembles, introduced by Felstrom and Zigangirov, have excellent thresholds and these thresholds are rapidly increasing functions of the average degree. Several variations on the basic theme have been proposed ...
The rate-distortion performance of a distributed video coding system strongly depends on the characteristics of the side information. One could naively think that the best side information is the one with the largest PSNR with respect to the original corre ...

SIFT-like local feature descriptors are ubiquitously employed in computer vision applications such as content-based retrieval, video analysis, copy detection, object recognition, photo tourism, and 3D reconstruction. Feature descriptors can be designed to ...

Given a collection of n opaque unit disks in the plane, we want to find a stacking order for them that maximizes their visible perimeter, the total length of all pieces of their boundaries visible from above. We prove that if the centers of the disks form ...
Shannon, in his seminal work, formalized the transmission of data over a communication channel and determined its fundamental limits. He characterized the relation between communication rate and error probability and showed that as long as the communicatio ...
The subject of this paper is transmission over a general class of binary-input memoryless symmetric channels using error correcting codes based on sparse graphs, namely, low-density generator-matrix and low-density parity-check codes. The optimal (or ideal ...
It is shown that given two copies of a q-ary input channel W, where q is prime, it is possible to create two channels W- and W+ whose symmetric capacities satisfy I(W-)
