We present a 3D, probabilistic object-surface model, along with mechanisms for probabilistically integrating unregistered 2.5D views into the model, and for segmenting model instan...
Abstract. This paper presents a method for estimating the orientation of planar text surfaces using the edge-direction distribution (EDD) extracted from the image as input to a neu...
— This paper is devoted to the control of a cable driven redundant parallel manipulator, which is a challenging problem due the optimal resolution of its inherent redundancy. Add...
