— Designing a localization system for a low-cost robotic consumer product poses a major challenge. In previous work, we introduced Vector Field SLAM [5], a system for simultaneou...

We address the problem of segmenting 3D scan data into objects or object classes. Our segmentation framework is based on a subclass of Markov Random Fields (MRFs) which support ef...

This paper presents a new statistical model for detecting and tracking deformable objects such as pedestrians, where large shape variations induced by local shape deformation can ...
Classifying an event captured in an image is useful for understanding the contents of the image. The captured event provides context to refine models for the presence and appearan...
In this paper we propose an extension to the standard Markov Random Field (MRF) model in order to handle layers. Our extension, which we call a Factorial MRF (FMRF), is analogous t...
