First Person Shooters are among the most played computer video games. They combine navigation, interaction and collaboration in 3D virtual environments using simple input devices, i.e. mouse and keyboard. In this paper, we study the possibilities brought by these games for musical interaction. We present the Couacs, a collaborative multiprocess instrument which relies on interaction techniques ...

This work presents our method for people detection on the surroundings of a mobile robot by using two layers of multiple LRFs, allowing to simultaneously detect two set of different features for every person: chest and legs areas. A person model is created according to the association of these features and a volume representation allows to estimate the current person position. We present experi...

This paper establishes and interprets a necessary and sufficient condition for existence of (countably additive) correlated equilibrium in n-person games, assuming only that utility functions are bounded, measurable. A sequence of deviation profiles is consistent if there exists a correlated strategy that makes every profile in the sequence unprofitable with respect to the sum of utilities. An ...
