Efficient Opinion Sharing in Large Decentralised Teams
, 2012 In this paper we present an approach for improving the accuracy of shared opinions in a large decentralised team. Specifically, our solution optimises the opinion sharing process in order to help the majority of agents to form the correct opinion about a

Improvements to the OMI Near-uv Aerosol Algorithm Using A-train CALIOP and AIRS Observations [PDF]
The height of desert dust and carbonaceous aerosols layers and, to a lesser extent, the difficulty in assessing the predominant size mode of these absorbing aerosol types, are sources of uncertainty in the retrieval of aerosol properties from near UV ...
