We analyze the conditions for agency in natural and artificial systems. In the case of basic (natural) autonomous systems, self-construction and activity in the environment are two...
We present a surprisingly simple system that allows for robust normal reconstruction by dense photometric stereo, in the presence of severe shadows, highlight, transparencies, com...
The existence of supermassive black holes lurking in the centers of galaxies and of stellar binary systems containing a black hole with a few solar masses has been established bey...

This paper presents a method to perform 2D deformable object tracking using the boundary element method (BEM). BEM, like the finite element method (FEM), is a technique to model a...
Multispectral scene information is useful for radiometric graphics, material identification and imaging systems simulation. The multispectral scene can be described as a datacube,...
