— This paper describes an improved methodology for human motion recognition and imitation based on Factorial Hidden Markov Models (FHMM). Unlike conventional Hidden Markov Models...
In this paper, we propose a generative model for representing complex motion, such as wavy river, dancing fire and dangling cloth. Our generative method consists of four component...
Abstract— In this paper, we consider a class of continuoustime, continuous-space stochastic optimal control problems. Building upon recent advances in Markov chain approximation ...
We describe semi-Markov conditional random fields (semi-CRFs), a conditionally trained version of semi-Markov chains. Intuitively, a semiCRF on an input sequence x outputs a "...
We propose a new approach to estimate gait kinematics from image sequences taken by a monocular uncalibrated camera. This approach involves two generative models for gait represen...
