— We suggest that people’s responses to a robot of which attention starts to be distracted show whether they accept the robot as an intentional communication partner or not. Hu...
Building footprints have been shown to be extremely useful in urban planning, infrastructure development, and roof modeling. Current methods for creating these footprints are ofte...
—Crease surfaces are two-dimensional manifolds along which a scalar field assumes a local maximum (ridge) or a local minimum (valley) in a constrained space. Unlike isosurfaces, ...
We present a novel method for the discovery and detection of visual object categories based on decompositions using topic models. The approach is capable of learning a compact and...
Bilateral symmetry is a salient visual feature of many man-made objects. In this paper, we present research that use bilateral symmetry to identify, segment and track objects in re...
