A new coarse-coding technique is presented for labeling image pixels and regions to match exemplars or multivariate material signatures. This multinomial classification method can be used for object cuing and tracking, as well as for material identification and image segmentation.
In this paper, formal definitions are given for several coherence relations, based on the operations of an inference system; that is, the relations between successive portions of a discourse are characterized in terms of the inferences that can be drawn from each.
A method for synthesizing multi-agent plans from simpler single-agent plans is described. The idea is to insert communication acts into the single-agent plans so that agents can synchronize activities and avoid harmful interactions.
This paper considers a number of problems in the semantics of belief sentences from the perspective of computational models of the psychology of belief.
Perception of depth is a central problem in machine vision. Stereo is an attractive technique for depth perception because, compared to monocular techniques, it leads to more direct, unambiguous, and quantitative depth measurements.
This chapter describes new developments in computer-based procedures that can improve our understanding of how people organize and use information. Relevant recent research in information science, computational linguistics, and artificial intelligence is reviewed.
This note discusses the adequacy of current computer architectures to serve as a base for building machine vision systems. Arguments are presented to show that perceptual problems cannot be completely formalized and dealt with in a closed abstract system.
There is much talk about this being the Age of Information and about a Post-Industrial Revolution centered on information processing. But what exactly is information?
