Conventional approaches to most image understanding problems suffer from fragility when applied to natural environments. Complexity in Intelligent Systems can be managed by breaking the world into manageable contexts. GRAVA supports robust performance by treating changes in the program’s environment as context changes. Automatically tracking changes in the environment and making corresponding changes...
