In this paper we present VOCUS: a robust computational attention system for goal-directed search. A standard bottom-up architecture is extended by a top-down component, enabling th...
Conversing on cell phones while driving an automobile is a common practice. We examine the interference of the cognitive load of conversational dialog with driving tasks, with the...
In this paper we present a novel system for monitoring a computer user’s posture and activities in front of the computer (e.g., reading, speaking on the phone, etc.) for self-re...
The economics of robot manufacturing is driving us toward situations in which a single human operator will be expected to split attention across multiple semiautonomous vehicles, ...
Detection of objects is in general a computationally demanding task. To simplify the problem it is of interest to focus the attention to a set of regions of interest. Indoor enviro...
