This paper demonstrates a new approach towards object recognition founded on the development of Neural Network classifiers and Bayesian Networks. The mapping from segmented image region descriptors to semantically meaningful ...

The normalised compression distance measures the mutual compressibility of two signals. We show that this distance can be used for classification on real images. Furthermore, the same compressor can also operate on derived ...

We report a user study focusing on the effects of platform (immersive, non-immersive) on usability and enjoyment of a deafaccessible game for K-5 math and science education. The study highlighted hearing status and gender ...

Molecular Dynamics simulations are nowadays routinely used to complement experimental studies and overcome some of their limitations. In particular, current experimental techniques do not allow to directly observe the full ...

We describe an innovative system designed for museums to create, manage and present multimedia based representations of museum artefacts in virtual exhibitions both inside and outside museums. Our system creates digital ...

We propose constraint sets as an efficient data structure for topology-changing deformable tetrahedral meshes. Using constraint sets, data structure updates in case of topology changes are simple and efficient. The consistency ...

Motion capture (mocap) data is commonly used to recreate complex human motions in computer graphics. Markers are placed on an actor, and the captured movement of these markers allows us to animate computer-generated ...

Stereo visualization is an area which can greatly benefit from cluster computing due to the parallelizable nature of the rendering task. In order to implement this idea, we have developed a novel software architecture which ...

Medial Axis is known to be unstable for non smooth objects. The Medial Axis has applications in image analysis and mathematical morphology, Solid Modeling, or domain decomposition for CAD to CAE (i.e. Finite Elements) ...

Virtual environments and user interfaces in general can be improved by using the concept of Perceptual Realism, e.g. by means of non-photorealistic rendering techniques. The approach presented here follows a different path ...
