On Solving The Findspace Problem, or How to Find Out Where Things Aren't ....
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1973-03-29)
A Knowledge-Based Computer Animation System
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1976-02)
This paper reproduces part of a doctoral thesis proposal describing the design of a system capable of generating animated drawings in response to a simple story. The representation and interaction of the various sources ...
Knowledge Driven Recognition of the Human Body
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1976-01)
This paper shows how a good internal model of the subject viewed aids in the visual recognition and following of key parts. The role of knowledge driven top-down tools and methods is shown by recognizing a series of human ...
The Fundamental Eel Equations
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1975-12)
Details of the kinematics, statics, and dynamics of a particularly simple form of locomotory system are developed to demonstrate the importance of understanding the behavior of the mechanical system interposed between the ...
Evolving Parallel Programs
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1979-05)
Message passing is directed toward the production of programs that are intended to execute efficiently in a computing environment with a large number of processors. The paradigm attempts to address the computational issues ...
A Note on Perturbation Results for Learning Empirical Operators
(2008-08-19)
A large number of learning algorithms, for example, spectral clustering, kernel Principal Components Analysis and many manifold methods are based on estimating eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of operators defined by a ...
Mini-Robot Group User's Guide Part 2: Access From ITS
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1978-06)
Part 2 of the MINI-ROBOT USER'S GUIDE describes those devices attached to the mini-robot system which may be accessed from ITS, and describes the appropriate software for accessing them. Specifically, the photowriter, ...
Mini-Robot Group User's Guide Part 1: The 11/45 System
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1978-06)
This USER'S GUIDE is in two parts. Part 1 describes the facilities of the mini-robot group 11/45 and the software available to persons using those facilities. It is intended for those writing their own programs to be run ...
Using Message Passing Instead of the GOTO Construct
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1978-04)
This paper advocates a programming methodology using message passing. Efficient programs are derived for fast exponentiation, merging ordered sequences, and path existence determination in a directed graph. The problems ...
The Position of the Sun
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1978-03)
The appearance of a surface depends dramatically on how it is illuminated. In order to interpret properly satellite and aerial imagery, it is necessary to know the position of the sun in the sky. This is particularly ...
