In this paper, we present an approach for recognizing pointing gestures in the context of human–robot interaction. In order to obtain input features for gesture recognition, we ...
This paper presents a method for learning the parameters of rhythmic walking to generate purposive humanoid motions. The controller consists of the two layers: rhythmic walking is...
