We propose a novel, self-validating approach for detecting curved reflection symmetry patterns from real, unsegmented images. Our method benefits from the observation that any curv...
Abstract Modern service robots will soon become an essential part of modern society. As they have to move and act in human environments, it is essential for them to be provided wit...
Particle Swarm Optimisation (PSO) uses a population of particles that fly over the fitness landscape in search of an optimal solution. The particles are controlled by forces tha...

Abstract We propose a particle-based technique for simulating incompressible fluid that includes adaptive refinement of particle sampling. Each particle represents a mass of fluid ...
Niching techniques play an important role in evolutionary algorithms. Existing niching methods often require userspecified parameters, limiting their usefulness. This paper propos...
