Despite ubiquitous claims that optical character recognition (OCR) is a "solved problem," many categories of documents continue to break modern OCR software such as docu...
State-of-the-art approaches for detecting filament-like
structures in noisy images rely on filters optimized for signals
of a particular shape, such as an ideal edge or ridge.
W...
Example-based learning of codes that statistically encode general image classes is of vital importance for computational vision. Recently, non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) ...
— Human control of high degree-of-freedom robotic systems, e.g. anthropomorphic robot hands, is often difficult due to the overwhelming number of variables that need to be speci...
We propose a smart sound sensor for building context-aware systems that instantly learn and detect events from various kinds of everyday sounds and environmental noise by using sma...
