3D Pose Estimation and Segmentation using Specular Cues
We present a system for fast model-based segmentation and 3D pose estimation of specular objects using appearance based specular features. We use observed (a) specular reflection...

Self-replication, Evolvability and Asynchronicity in Stochastic Worlds
We consider temporal aspects of self-replication and evolvability – in particular, the massively asynchronous parallel and distributed nature of living systems. Formal views of s...
