Abstract– The investigation of continuum robots has become an area of considerable interest in the last several years. Unlike conventional robotic manipulators which bend in disc...
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 ...
We challenge the widespread assumption that an embedded system’s functionality can be captured in a single specification and then partitioned among software and custom hardware ...
: One of the most important problems in SOC platforms design is that of defining strategies for tuning the parameters of a parameterized system so as to obtain the Pareto-optimal s...
In this paper we address the problem of on-line recognition of human activities taking place in a public area such as a shopping center. We consider standard activities; namely, en...
