Hand Posture Estimation by Combining 2-D Appearance-Based and 3-D Model-Based Approaches
This paper proposes a method for the rapid and precise estimation of human hand postures by combining 2-D appearance matching and 3-D model-based fitting. First a rough posture e...

Algebraic Curves That Work Better
An algebraic curve is defined as the zero set of a polynomial in two variables. Algebraic curves are practical for modeling shapes much more complicated than conics or su...

Legged Odometry from Body Pose in a Hexapod Robot
We report on a continuous time odometry scheme for a walking hexapod robot built upon a previously developed leg-strain based body pose estimator. We implement this estimation proc...
