The ESP game belongs to the genre called Games with a Purpose (GWAP), which leverage people's desire to be entertained and also outsource certain steps of the computational p...
We present an interactive system to create 3D models of objects of interest in their natural cluttered environments. A typical setting for 3D modeling of an object of interest invo...
We propose a new type of database system coined OctopusDB. Our approach suggests a unified, one size fits all data processing architecture for OLTP, OLAP, streaming systems, and...
This paper proposes a novel approach to recognize object categories in point clouds. By quantizing 3D SURF local descriptors, computed on partial 3D shapes extracted from the poin...
—With the appearance of massively parallel and inexpensive platforms such as the G80 generation of NVIDIA GPUs, more real-life applications will be designed or ported to these pl...
