A steady sweep

An objective method for measuring face detection thresholds using the sweep steady-state visual evoked response.

We introduce a sensitive method for measuring face detection thresholds rapidly, objectively, and independently of low-level visual cues. The method is based on the swept parameter steady-state visual evoked potential (ssVEP), in which a stimulus is presented at a specific temporal frequency while parametrically varying ("sweeping") the detectability of the stimulus. Here, the visibility of a f...

Implicit Sweep

Mark DURING Sweep rather than Mark THEN Sweep

Garbage Collection frees the programmer from the burden of explicitly deallocating unused data. This facility induces a considerable overhead but also causes some delays that may aaect real-time applications. Guaranteed throughput (with at most short and predictable delays) is needed in many applications such as plane or plant control and requires at least a worst case analysis to identify the ...

Making a Clean Sweep: Behavior Based Vacuuming

This position paper discusses how the techniques and building blocks in use at the Georgia Tech Mobile Robot Lab could be used to construct an autonomous vacuum cleaner. Previous research at Georgia Tech using the Autonomous Robot Architecture (AURA)[2, has demonstrated robust operation in dynamic and partially modeled environments[3, 12]. Although much of this work has been deployed and tested...
