Abstract: Combinatorial property testing, initiated formally by Goldreich, Goldwasser, and Ron in [Goldreich et al. (1998)] and inspired by Rubinfeld and Sudan in [Rubinfeld and Su...
— This paper presents an interior point approach to exact distance computation between convex objects represented as intersections of implicit surfaces. Exact distance computatio...
Object detection in unconstrained images is an important image understanding problem with many potential applications. There has been little success in creating a single algorithm...
The implicit approach can be used to efficiently model realistically deformable objects for large constraints such as stiffness or time. In soft bodies with pressure forces, model...
This paper describes the innovative use of genetic programming (GP) to solve the grasp synthesis problem for multifingered robot hands. The goal of our algorithm is to select a Ò...
