We consider typical manipulation tasks in terms of a service robot framework. Given a task at hand, such as ”Pick up the cup from the dinner table”, we present a number of diff...
— Detecting the boundaries of objects is a key step in separating foreground objects from the background, which is useful for robotics and computer vision applications, such as o...

Scale and affine-invariant local features have shown excellent performance in image matching, object and texture recognition. This paper optimizes keypoint detection to achieve sta...
Abstract. In this paper a rigorous mathematical framework of deterministic annealing and mean-field approximation is presented for a general class of partitioning, clustering and ...
With the success of local features in object recognition, feature-set representations are widely used in computer vision and related domains. Pyramid match kernel (PMK) is an effi...
