Compared to a geometric approach, image based rendering applied to 3D view reconstruction doesn't require 3D model construction and doesn't depend on the complexity of t...
Abstract. A novel interactive virtual needle insertion simulation is presented. The insertion model simulates three-degree-of-freedom needle motion, physically-based needle forces,...
Commercial database systems expose query hints to fix poor plans produced by the query optimizer. However, current query hints are not flexible enough to deal with a variety of no...

We have developed a general purpose use and modular architecture of an Embodied Conversational Agent (ECA) called Greta. Our 3D agent is able to communicate using verbal and nonve...
