Abstract. The visual analysis of human manipulation actions is of interest for e.g. human-robot interaction applications where a robot learns how to perform a task by watching a hu...
Abstract-- Local convergence is a limitation of many optimization approaches for multimodal functions. For hybrid model learning, this can mean a compromise in accuracy. We develop...
— This paper describes a panoramic view-based navigation in outdoor environments. We have been developing a two-phase navigation method. In the training phase, the robot acquires...

In this paper we present a novel approach to mobile robot navigation in natural unstructured environments. Natural scenes can be considered as random fields where a large number ...
This paper presents a method of learning and recognizing generic object categories using part-based spatial models. The models are multiscale, with a scene component that specifie...
