We consider the problem of detecting object contours in natural images. In many cases, local luminance changes turn out to be stronger in textured areas than on object contours. Th...
ToonTalk is a child-oriented programming language whose environment is an animated virtual world, with objects that children can pick up and use as in a game, such as birds, truck...
This paper presents a new technique which incrementally builds a hierarchical discriminant regression (IHDR) tree for generation of motion based robot reactions. The robot learned...
We present an algorithm for producing behavior descriptions of planar fixed axes mechanical motions from image sequences using a formal behavior language. The language, which cove...
A new parallel-type gripper mechanism is proposed in this work. This device has a parallelogramic platform that can be flexibly folded. Therefore, this mechanism not only can be u...
