We consider typical manipulation tasks in terms of a service robot framework. Given a task at hand, such as ”Pick up the cup from the dinner table”, we present a number of diff...
We describe a prototype of a diffraction range finding camera implemented in, and simulated by, Java. This sensor is able to digitize objects in 3D using only a single video camer...
Supply chain management involves understanding complex interactions between many factors and using the understanding to achieve balance between conflicting objectives. Simulation ...
We propose novel approaches for optimizing the detection performance in spoken language recognition. Two objective functions are designed to directly relate model parameters to tw...
In this work we construct scale invariant descriptors (SIDs) without requiring the estimation of image scale; we thereby avoid scale selection which is often unreliable. Our start...
