We present an experiment on cooperative bimanual action. Right-handed subjects manipulated a pair of physical objects, a tool and a target object, so that the tool would touch a t...

: In many tracking applications, the extent of the target object is neglected and it is assumed that the received measurements stem from a point source. However, modern sensors are...
Abstract. In the field of the service robots, object detection and scene understanding are very important. Conventional methods for object detection are performed with the geometri...
Recent advances in three-dimensional (3D) data acquisition techniques have offered an alternative to the traditional 2D metamorphosis (or morphing) approaches, which gradually cha...
We present a fast and robust method for moving object tracking directly in the compressed domain using features available in MPEG videos. DCT domain background subtraction in Y pla...
This work presents an evolutionary algorithm to reconstruct 3D objects based on images of them. In the proposed evolutionary algorithm, we describe a way to evolve 3D initial mode...

Abstract— A system is detailed here for using imitation learning to teach a robot to grasp objects using both hand and wholebody grasps, which use the arms and torso as well as h...
We show how a greedy approach to visual search — i.e., directly moving to the most likely location of the target — can be suboptimal, if the target object is hard to detect. I...
—This paper presents two experiments with Electric Field Servoing for robotic manipulation. In the first, a robot hand pre-shapes to the geometry and pose of objects to be graspe...
Shape-from-shading methods recover 3-D shape from intensity images. Often, Lambertian reflectance is assumed. The Lambertian assumption is attractive because it simplifies the a...
