— Planetary exploration systems, operating under severe environmental and operating conditions, have thus far successfully employed carefully calibrated stereo cameras and manipu...
— In this paper, we propose an original approach to control camera position and/or lighting conditions in an environment using image gradient information. Our goal is to ensure a...
— In this work, we have extended the concept of constrained motion control of robots to surgical tasks that require multiple robots. We present virtual fixtures to guide the mot...
Most connectionist research has focused on learning mappings from one space to another (eg. classification and regression). This paper introduces the more general task of learnin...
Abstract. This paper presents a novel approach to analyze the appearance of human motions with a simple model i.e. mapping the motions using a virtual marionette model. The approac...
