• Computing hierarchical finite state controllers with classical planning

  Segovia-Aguas, Javier; Jiménez, Sergio; Jonsson, Anders, 1973- (AI Access Foundation, 2018)

  Finite State Controllers (FSCs) are an effective way to compactly represent sequential plans. By imposing appropriate conditions on transitions, FSCs can also represent generalized plans (plans that solve a range of planning ...
• Seizure cycles in focal epilepsy

  Leguia, Marc G.; Andrzejak, Ralph Gregor; Rummel, Christian; Fan, Joline M.; Mirro, Emily A.; Tcheng, Thomas K.; Rao, Vikram R.; Baud, Maxime O. (American Medical Association, 2021)

• A reevaluation of Whittle (1986, 1992) reveals the link between detection thresholds, discrimination thresholds, and brightness perception

  Kane, David; Bertalmío, Marcelo (Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO), 2019)

  In 1986, Paul Whittle investigated the ability to discriminate between the luminance of two small patches viewed upon a uniform background. In 1992, Paul Whittle asked subjects to manipulate the luminance of a number of ...
