Standard analysis on recursive data structures restrict their attention to shape properties (for instance, a program that manipulates a list returns a list), excluding properties t...
Haptic interactions with stiff virtual surfaces feel more realistic when a short-duration transient is added to the spring force at contact. But how should this event-based transi...
Selecting the optimal kernel is an important and difficult challenge in applying kernel methods to pattern recognition. To address this challenge, multiple kernel learning (MKL) ...
Abstract--We propose an approach to accurately detecting twodimensional (2-D) shapes. The cross section of the shape boundary is modeled as a step function. We first derive a one-d...
We present a novel matching and similarity evaluation method for planar geometric shapes represented by sets of polygonal curves. Given two shapes, the matching algorithm randomly...
