Building a Task Language for Segmentation and Recognition of User Input to Cooperative Manipulation Systems
We present the results of using Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) for automatic segmentation and recognition of user motions. Previous work on recognition of user intent with man/machin...

FOCUS: a generalized method for object discovery for robots that observe and interact with humans
The essence of the signal-to-symbol problem consists of associating a symbolic description of an object (e.g., a chair) to a signal (e.g., an image) that captures the real object....

Stable Haptic Interaction Using the Excalibur Force Display
Creating a compelling haptic sense of immersion in a virtual environment is a challenging task for the control engineer. A haptic display must render both low impedance free-space...
