 | Sobh, Tarek M.; Henderson, Thomas C. | A dynamic recursive structure for intelligent inspection | We suggest a new approach for inspection and reverse engineering applications. In particular we investigate the use of discrete event dynamic systems DEDS to guide and control the active exploration and sensing of mechanical parts for industrial inspection and reverse engineering??
