Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedures
, 2002
"... GRASP is a multi-start metaheuristic for combinatorial problems, in which each iteration consists basically of two phases: construction and local search. The construction phase builds a feasible solution, whose neighborhood is investigated until a local minimum is found during the local search phas ..."

Successful implementation techniques and parameter tuning strategies are discussed and illustrated by numerical results obtained for different applications. Enhanced or alternative
Probabilistic Roadmaps for Path Planning in High-Dimensional Configuration Spaces
- IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION
, 1996
"... A new motion planning method for robots in static workspaces is presented. This method proceeds in two phases: a learning phase and a query phase. In the learning phase, a probabilistic roadmap is constructed and stored as a graph whose nodes correspond to collision-free configurations and whose edg ..."

Performance of optical flow techniques
- INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTER VISION
, 1994
"... While different optical flow techniques continue to appear, there has been a lack of quantitative evaluation of existing methods. For a common set of real and synthetic image sequences, we report the results of a number of regularly cited optical flow techniques, including instances of differential, ..."

, matching, energy-based and phase-based methods. Our comparisons are primarily empirical, and concentrate on the accuracy, reliability and density of the velocity measurements; they show that performance can differ significantly among the techniques we implemented.
A Transformation System for Developing Recursive Programs
, 1977
"... A system of rules for transforming programs is described, with the programs in the form of recursion equations An initially very simple, lucid. and hopefully correct program IS transformed into a more efficient one by altering the recursion structure Illustrative examples of program transformations ..."

Efficient Variants of the ICP Algorithm
- INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON 3-D DIGITAL IMAGING AND MODELING
, 2001
"... The ICP (Iterative Closest Point) algorithm is widely used for geometric alignment of three-dimensional models when an initial estimate of the relative pose is known. Many variants of ICP have been proposed, affecting all phases of the algorithm from the selection and matching of points to the minim ..."

Active Messages: a Mechanism for Integrated Communication and Computation
, 1992
"... The design challenge for large-scale multiprocessors is (1) to minimize communication overhead, (2) allow communication to overlap computation, and (3) coordinate the two without sacrificing processor cost/performance. We show that existing message passing multiprocessors have unnecessarily high com ..."

Ontologies: Principles, methods and applications
- KNOWLEDGE ENGINEERING REVIEW
, 1996
"... This paper is intended to serve as a comprehensive introduction to the emerging field concerned with the design and use of ontologies. We observe that disparate backgrounds, languages, tools, and techniques are a major barrier to effective communication among people, organisations, and/or software s ..."

A Multiphase Level Set Framework for Image Segmentation Using the Mumford and Shah Model

User-friendly task-oriented input files are available for nearly all aspects of macromolecular structure determination
Tropos: An Agent-Oriented Software Development Methodology
, 2003

First, the notion of agent and all related mentalistic notions (for instance goals and plans) are used in all phases of software develop ..."
