— This paper presents a 3D object recognition method based on spin-images for a humanoid robot having a stereoscopic vision system. Spin-images have been proposed to search CAD m...
Recent psychological and neurological evidence suggests that biological object recognition is a process of matching sensed images to stored iconic memories. This paper presents a p...
An algorithm is presented that enables fast deformation of volumetric objects. Using this algorithm, rigid, deformable, elastic and plastic materials can be modeled by adjusting d...
Given an object model and a black-box measure of similarity between the model and candidate targets, we consider visual object tracking as a numerical optimization problem. During...
We propose an approach to identify and segment objects from scenes that a person (or robot) encounters in Activities of Daily Living (ADL). Images collected in those cluttered sce...
