A robot’s ability to assist humans in a variety of tasks, e.g. in search and rescue or in a household, heavily depends on the robot’s reliable recognition of the objects in th...
This paper proposes a metric learning based approach for human activity recognition with two main objectives: (1) reject unfamiliar activities and (2) learn with few examples. We s...
This paper describes a new algorithm for the recognition of human activities. These activities are modelled using banks of switched dynamical models, each of which is tailored to ...
Providing methods to support semantic interaction with growing volumes of video data is an increasingly important challenge for data mining. To this end, there has been some succes...
— Communication skill is essential for social robots in various environments such as homes, offices, and hospitals, where the robots are expected to interact with humans. In thi...
