A fundamental problem in computer vision (CV) is the estimation of geometric parameters from multiple observations obtained from images; examples of such problems range from ellip...
Affect sensitivity is of the utmost importance for a robot companion to be able to display socially intelligent behaviour, a key requirement for sustaining long-term interactions ...
We present a novel approach to speech-driven facial animation using a non-parametric switching state space model based on Gaussian processes. The model is an extension of the shar...
Minimizing the rank of a matrix subject to constraints is a challenging problem that arises in many applications in machine learning, control theory, and discrete geometry. This c...
Schema mappings are high-level specifications that describe the relationship between two database schemas. They are an important tool in several areas of database research, notab...
