Abstract— To advance robotic science it is important to perform experiments that can be replicated by other researchers to compare different methods. However, these comparisons t...
This paper presents an algorithm for computing the distance between a point and a convex cone in n-dimensional space. The convex cone is specified by the set of all nonnegative com...
Sturm-Triggs iteration is a standard method for solving the projective factorization problem. Like other iterative algorithms, this method suffers from some common drawbacks such ...
We present new training methods that aim to mitigate local optima and slow convergence in unsupervised training by using additional imperfect objectives. In its simplest form, lat...
