We present a fast and efficient homing algorithm based on Fourier transformed panoramic images. By continuously comparing Fourier coefficients calculated from the current view wit...
The Scale Invariant Feature Transform, SIFT, has been successfully applied to robot localization. Still, the number of features extracted with this approach is immense, especially...
Imitation in artificial systems involves a number of important aspects, such as extracting the relevant features of the demonstrated behaviour, inverse mapping observations, and e...
In this paper we examine issues of localization, exploration, and planning in the context of a hybrid robot/camera-network system. We exploit the ubiquity of camera networks to us...
A class of biped locomotion called Passive Dynamic Walking (PDW) has been recognized to be efficient in energy consumption and a key to understand human walking. Although PDW is s...
According to the motor theories of perception, the motor systems of an observer are actively involved in the perception of actions when these are performed by a demonstrator. In t...
In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for the automatic registration of two overlapping range images. Since it is relatively difficult to compare the registration errors of ...
