This work presents a representation of 3D object shape using a probabilistic volumetric map derived from in-hand exploration. The exploratory procedure is based on contour following through the… Continue Reading
Seizure prediction for untreatable epileptic patients, one of the major challenges of present neuroinformatics researchers, will allow a substantial improvement in their safety and quality of life.… Continue Reading
This work intends to contribute to the development of autonomous dexterous robotic hands by presenting an approach to describe the mechanisms underlying the human strategies during the execution of… Continue Reading
This work relies on a probabilistic framework to search for suitable grasping regions on objects. In this approach, the object model is acquired based on occupancy grid representation that deals with… Continue Reading
It remains an open question whether long-range disambiguation of ambiguous surface motion can be achieved in early visual cortex or instead in higher level regions, which concerns object/surface… Continue Reading
In this work, we present a probabilistic approach to find motion patterns in manipulation tasks by looking for similarities among relevant features inside action phases of trajectories. From multiple… Continue Reading
In this work it is shown the representation of 3D object shape acquired from grasp exploration. Electromagnetic motion tracking sensors are used on the fingers for object contour following to acquire… Continue Reading
