Ready for detection: Stair-detecting in depth images using spatial features and Adaboosting

Space exploration could be significantly aided by combining the disciplines of machine learning and computer vision, but these disciplines need to be developed further for specific space-related applications to have merit. One of the applications for space exploration is the detection of certain structures designating areas of interest. This...

Example-Based Approach For Real-Time Rigged Character Animation

We present a system that allows users to generate animations for 3D rigged geometry easily and quickly us- ing just a regular consumer Microsoft Kinect. The interactive system allows diverse meshes to be animated through the interaction of human body. Traditionally, creating expressive and convincing animation is a challenging and laborious. Our...
