1,969 | 4 | 3D Hand Pose Reconstruction Using Specialized Mappings A system for recovering 3D hand pose from monocular color sequences is proposed. The system employs a non-linear supervised learning framework, the specialized mappings architecture (SMA), to map image features to likely 3D hand poses. The SMA's fundamental compone... | [

1,970 | 5 | Accurate and Fast Proximity Queries Between Polyhedra Using Convex Surface Decomposition The need to perform fast and accurate proximity queries arises frequently in physically-based modeling, simulation, animation, real-time interaction within a virtual environment, and game dynamics. The set of proximity queries in... | [] | Train |
1,971 | 1 | Hierarchical Discriminant Regression The main motivation of this paper is to propose a new classification and regression method for challenging high dimensional data. The proposed new technique casts classification problems (class labels as output) and regression problems (numeric values as output) into a unified regre... | [] | Validation |
1,972 | 1 | Hunting moving targets: an extension to Bayesian methods in multimedia databases It has been widely recognised that the difference between the level of abstraction of the formulation of a query (by example) and that of the desired result (usually an image with certain semantics) calls for the use of learning methods th... | [

1,973 | 2 | Similarity Measures With complex multimedia data, we see the emergence of database systems in which the fundamental operation is similarity assessment. Before database issues can be addressed, it is necessary to give a definition of similarity as an operation. In this paper we develop a similarity measure, based on fuz... | [

1,974 | 1 | A Novel Sensor for Dynamic Tactile Information We present a novel tactile sensor, which is useful for dextrous grasping with a simple robot gripper. The novel part consists of an array of capacitive sensors, which couple to the object by means of little brushes of fibers. These sensor elements are very sensitive (with ... | [
