The composition of the example set has a major impact on the quality of neural learning. The popular approach is focused on extensive preprocessing to bridge the representation ga...
In recent years second-order sufficient conditions of an isolated local minimizer for convex composite optimization problems have been established. In this paper, second-order opt...
In this paper we present a novel approach to mobile robot navigation based on environment representation by statistical models. Natural unstructured scenes are interpreted as real...
-- The initial resting pose of many industrial parts differs from the orientation desired for assembly. We show that it is possible to align parts during grasping using a standard ...
We present a system for free-form surface modeling that allows a user to modify a shape by changing its rendered, shaded image using stroke-based drawing tools. User input is tran...
