This paper presents the implementation of an environment for the evolution of one-dimensional cellular automata using a reconfigurable logic device. This configware is aimed at eva...
Acceleration structures used for ray tracing have been designed and optimized for efficient traversal of static scenes. As it becomes feasible to do interactive ray tracing of movi...
We present a system for robust robot skill acquisition from kinesthetic demonstrations. This system allows a robot to learn a simple goal-directed gesture, and correctly reproduce...
