We present an approach for large-scale modeling of parametric surfaces using spherical harmonics (SHs). A standard least square fitting (LSF) method for SH expansion is not scala...
This paper proposes a “non-contact virtual clay modeling interface.” We developed a prototype of a three-dimensional modeling system that allows the user to deform the “virt...
We present a general-purpose framework for updating a robot’s observation model within the context of planning and execution. Traditional plan execution relies on monitoring plan...

Gaussian Process prior models, as used in Bayesian non-parametric statistical models methodology are applied to implement a nonlinear adaptive control law. The expected value of a...
We introduce a cost model for the M-tree access method [Ciaccia et al., 1997] which provides estimates of CPU (distance computations) and I/O costs for the execution of similarity ...
