Driving behaviour prediction is a challenging problem due to the nonlinearity of human behaviour. Linear and nonlinear techniques have been used to solve this problem, and they provide good results presented in the performance of the current autonomous cars. However, they lack the ability to adapt to abruptness that happens because of the human factor. In this paper, we introduce a method to extract...
This paper addresses a major challenge in data-driven haptic modeling of deformable objects. Data-driven modeling is done for specific objects and is difficult to generalize for nearly isometric objects that have similarities in semantics or topology. This limitation prevents the wide use of the data-driven modeling techniques when compared with parametric methods such as finite element methods. The...
Human action recognition has been attracted lots of interest from computer vision researchers due to its various promising applications. In this paper, we employ Pyramid Histogram of Orientation Gradient (PHOG) to characterize human figures for action recognition. Comparing to silhouette-based features, the PHOG descriptor does not require extraction of human silhouettes or contours. Two state-space...
This paper addresses the problem of heterogeneous deformable model accuracy using the finite element methods (FEM). Classic FEM uses predefined shape functions for interpolation and does not account easily for regions of discontinuities. Extended finite element methods (XFEM) use enrichment functions to compensate for the change in an element degrees of freedom (DoFs) in deformable objects. The XFEM...
