In this paper we propose a paradigm called the Interactive Visual Dialog (IVD) as a means of facilitating a system's ability to recognize objects presented to it by a human. ...
Abstract--Much of the visualization research has focused on improving the rendering quality and speed, and enhancing the perceptibility of features in the data. Recently, significa...
We propose novel gaze control algorithms for active perception in mobile autonomous agents with directable, foveated vision sensors. Our agents are realistic artificial animals, o...
Accurate knowledge of depth continues to be of critical importance in robotic systems. Without accurate depth knowledge, tasks such as inspection, tracking, grasping, and collisio...
We present MikeTalk, a text-to-audiovisual speech synthesizer which converts input text into an audiovisual speech stream. MikeTalk is built using visemes, which are a set of imag...
