Template based control of hexapedal running
In this paper, we introduce a new hexapedal locomotion controller that simulation evidence suggests will be capable of driving our RHex robot at speeds exceeding five body length...

Computational approaches for real-time extraction of soft biometrics
Soft biometrics, as a prescreening filter, contribute to a much smaller candidate pool and allow the overall query to perform better and faster. In this paper, we focus on the eff...
