– We introduce a new method for synthesizing kinematics and Jacobian relationships for an important class of continuous backbone “continuum” robots. The resulting Jacobians e...
We present a system capable of visually detecting pointing gestures and estimating the 3D pointing direction in real-time. We use Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) trained on different ...
This paper describes a method to recover scene geometry from the second-bounce of light transport. We show that form factors (up to a scaling ambiguity) can be derived from the sec...
A conservative implementation of a predicate returns true only if the exact predicate is true. That is, we accept a one sided error for the implementation. For geometric predicate...
The ability to dynamically discover and invoke a Web Service is a critical aspect of Service Oriented Architectures. An important component of the discovery process is the matchma...
