The control of aerial gymnastic maneuvers is challenging because these maneuvers frequently involve complex rotational motion and because the performer has limited control of the maneuver during flight. A performer can ...

A method is proposed for determining the motion of a body relative to a fixed environment using the changing image seen by a camera attached to the body. The optical flow in the image plane is the input, while the ...

Image restoration tasks are ill-posed problems, typically solved withpriors. Since the optimal prior is the exact unknown density of natural images,actual priors are only approximate and typically restricted to small ...

A description of a mathematical idealization of the feeding pattern of a kind of worm is given.

We demonstrate that active rotations in chemically signalling particles, such as autochemotactic $\textit{E. coli}$ close to walls, create a route for pattern formation based on a nonlinear yet deterministic instability ...

A key question regarding primate visual motion perception is whether the motion of 2D patterns is recovered by tracking distinctive localizable features [Lorenceau and Gorea, 1989; Rubin and Hochstein, 1992] or by ...

This thesis reports on the process of implementing pattern recognition systems using classification models such as artificial neural networks (ANNs) and algorithms whose theoretical foundations come from statistics. The ...

The interaction of pattern-directed invocation with equality in an automated reasoning system gives rise to a completeness problem. In such systems, a demon needs to be invoked not only when its pattern exactly matches ...

This thesis is divided in two parts. The first one is devoted to the dynamics of polariton condensates, with particular attention to their pattern-forming capabilities. In many configurations of physical interest, the ...

We present a novel construction of the super-Pauli-Lubanski pseudo-vector for 4D supersymmetry and show how it arises naturally from the spin-shell constraints in the supertwistor formulation of superparticle dynamics. We ...

PATN is a design for a machine problem solver which uses an augmented transition network (ATN) to represent planning knowledge. In order to explore PATN's potential as a theory of human problem solving, a linguistic ...

LAP is a LISP FEXPR (or FSUBR when compiled) which is executed primarily for its side effect??ely assembling a symbolic listing into core as a machine language subroutine. As such, it is about the most convenient and rapid ...

This is a mosaic description of PDP-6 LISP, intended for readers familiar with the LISP 1.5 Programmer's Manual or who have used LISP on some other computer. Some of the newer features (e.g. the display) are experimental ...

This is a mosaic description of PDP-6 LISP, intended for readers familiar with the LISP 1.5 Programmer's Manual or who have used LISP on some other computer. Many of the features, such as the display, are subject to ...

A version of LISP 1.5 for the PDP-6 Computer has been extended to include IO through the dataphone. This makes possible communication between programs running in Project MAC time sharing and LISP programs running on the ...

An intermediate level language for display programming has been embedded in LISP 1.5 The language is intended as a basis for higher analysis of display information. Through the construction of a hierarchy of LISP functions ...

TECO is a scope-keyboard text- editor. It uses an on-line command language (which permits macro-definitions, corditional, etc.) as well as text operations. The macro language permits the most sophisticated search, ...

Ubiquitous computing systems aim to assist us as we go about our daily lives, whilst at the same time fading into the background so that we do not notice their presence. To do this they need to be able to sense their ...

PEEK is a utility program designed to operate under the ITS time sharing system. It enables a user to monitor a variety of aspects of the time sharing system by providing periodically updated display output or periodic ...
