This paper presents the scatter search particle filter (SSPF) algorithm and its application to real-time hands and face tracking. SSPF combines sequential Monte Carlo (particle fil...
We address the problem of control-based recovery of robot pose and the environmental lay-out. Panoramic sensors provide us with a 1D projection of characteristic features of a 2D ...
