We present an image-based Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) framework with online, appearanceonly loop closing. We adopt a layered approach with metric maps over small ...
We describe two experiments using three testbeds (real, virtual and vision-only) for comparison of user performance during 3-D peg-in-hole tasks. Tasks are performed using a six-d...

Getting trapped in suboptimal local minima is a perennial problem in model based vision, especially in applications like monocular human body tracking where complex nonlinear para...
Wavelet methods for geometry encoding is a recently emerged superset of multiresolution analysis which has proven to be very efficient in term of compression and adaptive transmis...
— We present ELVIS, a new approach for localizing a first responder (e.g., firefighter) inside a building. We assume that the first responder emits RF energy, which undergoes...
