Directional Coherence Maps as proposed by Guo in '98 are a very efficient acceleration technique for ray tracing based global illumination renderers. It vastly reduces the nu...
Constructing models of systems that change their structure over time has proved to be a challenging problem, with several proposed solutions. We present two of these approaches an...

This paper proposes a real-time, robust and efficient three-dimensional (3D) model-based tracking algorithm. A virtual visual servoing approach is used for monocular 3D tracking. T...
Self-organizing computational models with specific intracortical connections can explain many features of visual cortex. However, due to their computation and memory requirements,...
We address the motion planning problem (open-loop trajectory design) for manipulating rigid bodies with permanent rolling contact without slipping. This problem is related in part...
