The Ant System: Optimization by a colony of cooperating agents
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SYSTEMS, MAN, AND CYBERNETICS-PART B
, 1996
"... An analogy with the way ant colonies function has suggested the definition of a new computational paradigm, which we call Ant System. We propose it as a viable new approach to stochastic combinatorial optimization. The main characteristics of this model are positive feedback, distributed computation ..."

methodology to the classical Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), and report simulation results. We also discuss parameter selection and the early setups of the model, and compare it with tabu search and simulated annealing using TSP. To demonstrate the robustness of the approach, we show how the Ant System (AS
Lexical-Functional Grammar: A Formal System for Grammatical Representation
- IN: FORMAL ISSUES IN LEXICAL-FUNCTIONAL GRAMMAR
, 1995
"... In learning their native language, children develop a remarkable set of capabilities. They acquire knowledge and skills that enable them to produce and comprehend an indefinite number of novel utterances, and to make quite subtle judgments about certain of their properties. The major goal of psychol ..."

will incorporate a theoretically justi ed representation of the native speaker's linguistic knowledge (a grammar) as a component separate both from the computational mechanisms that operate on it (a processor) and from other nongrammatical processing parameters that might influence the processor
Packet Switching In Radio Channels: Part III -- Polling and . . .
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON COMMUNICATIONS
, 1976
"... Here we continue the analytic study of packet switching in radio channels which we reported upon in our two previous papers [ 11, [2]. Again we consider a population of terminals communicating with a central station over a packet-switched radio channel. The allocation of bandwidth among the contend ..."

, (as expected) random access is superior to both futed assignment and polling. We also introduce and analyze a dynamic reservation technique which we call split-channel reservation multiple access (SRMA) which is interesting in that it is both simple and efficient over a large range of system
Measurement, Modeling, and Analysis of a Peer-to-Peer File-Sharing Workload
, 2003
"... Peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing accounts for an astonishing volume of current Internet tra#c. This paper probes deeply into modern P2P file sharing systems and the forces that drive them. By doing so, we seek to increase our understanding of P2P file sharing workloads and their implications for futu ..."

Route Packets, Not Wires: On-Chip Interconnection Networks
, 2001
"... Using on-chip interconnection networks in place of ad-hoc global wiring structures the top level wires on a chip and facilitates modular design. With this approach, system modules (processors, memories, peripherals, etc...) communicate by sending packets to one another over the network. The structur ..."

On understanding types, data abstraction, and polymorphism
- ACM COMPUTING SURVEYS
, 1985
"... Our objective is to understand the notion of type in programming languages, present a model of typed, polymorphic programming languages that reflects recent research in type theory, and examine the relevance of recent research to the design of practical programming languages. Object-oriented languag ..."

Training Products of Experts by Minimizing Contrastive Divergence
, 2002
"... It is possible to combine multiple latent-variable models of the same data by multiplying their probability distributions together and then renormalizing. This way of combining individual “expert ” models makes it hard to generate samples from the combined model but easy to infer the values of the l ..."

of the latent variables of each expert, because the combination rule ensures that the latent variables of different experts are conditionally independent when given the data. A product of experts (PoE) is therefore an interesting candidate for a perceptual system in which rapid inference is vital and generation
Computer Vision
, 1982
"... Driver inattention is one of the main causes of traffic accidents. Monitoring a driver to detect inattention is a complex problem that involves physiological and behavioral elements. Different approaches have been made, and among them Computer Vision has the potential of monitoring the person behind ..."

The other main aim of this algorithm is to have efficient performance on low quality webcam and without
Real-time human pose recognition in parts from single depth images
- IN CVPR
, 2011
"... We propose a new method to quickly and accurately predict 3D positions of body joints from a single depth image, using no temporal information. We take an object recognition approach, designing an intermediate body parts representation that maps the difficult pose estimation problem into a simpler p ..."

Bricks: Laying the foundations for graspable user interfaces
, 1995
"... We introduce the concept of Graspable User Interfaces which allow direct control of electronic or virtual objects through physical handles for control. These physical artifacts are essentially new input devices which can be tightly coupled or “attached ” to virtual objects for manipulation or for ex ..."

First, as a note on research methodology, we outline a series of exploratory studies that were conducted. Secondly, we describe a prototype system called "Bricks &
