Abstract— GP-BayesFilters are a general framework for integrating Gaussian process prediction and observation models into Bayesian filtering techniques, including particle filt...
Accurate estimation and tracking of dynamic tissue deformation is important to motion compensation, intra-operative surgical guidance and navigation in minimally invasive surgery. ...
Recent research has demonstrated that useful POMDP solutions do not require consideration of the entire belief space. We extend this idea with the notion of temporal abstraction. ...
In this article we show how an active stereo camera head can be made to autonomously learn to fixate objects in space. During fixation, the system performs an initial and a corre...
Stochastic topological models, and hidden Markov models in particular, are a useful tool for robotic navigation and planning. In previous work we have shown how weak odometric dat...
