This paper is intended as an investigation of new environment for interactive multimedia art with biological sensors and biological feedback. The key concept is "listen to, watch and control/interact the physiological performance". I have developed two styles of sensors for performance with bio-sensor technology and microelectronics: (1) 16-channel electromyogram sensors detecting live performa...

Previous interactive works have used springs, heuristics, and dynamics for surface placement applications. We present an analytical technique for kilohertz rate manipulation of CAD models with virtual surface and trimming constraints. The optimization approach allows best placement and sensitivity analysis for mechanical design objectives and parametric domain objectives. Such objectives are no...

Interactive art is, by its very nature, concerned with audience experience. The interaction is the essence the meaning of the work to the participant. An embodied cognition framework may be used to explore individual’s cognition within a cognitive system while he or she is engaged in an interactive art experience. A cognitive system is identified as a system of interactions between the particip...

We study in this paper how explicit user feedback can be used by a case-based reasoning system to improve the quality of its retrieval phase. More specifically, we explore how both ranking feedback and relevance feedback can be exploited to modify the weights of case features. We propose some options to cope with each type of feedback. We also evaluate, in an interactive setting, their impact o...

In this contribution, a semi-automatic segmentation algorithm for (medical) image analysis is presented. More precise, the approach belongs to the category of interactive contouring algorithms, which provide real-time feedback of the segmentation result. However, even with interactive real-time contouring approaches there are always cases where the user cannot find a satisfying segmentation, e....

This paper introduces a Web-based demonstration of an interactive-predictive framework for syntactic tree annotation, where the user is tightly integrated into the interactive parsing system. In contrast with the traditional postediting approach, both the user and the system cooperate to generate error-free annotated trees. User feedback is provided by means of natural mouse gestures and keyboa...

Interactive rendering requires rapid visual feedback. The render cache is a new method for achieving this when using high-quality pixel-oriented renderers such as ray tracing that are usually considered too slow for interactive use. The render cache provides visual feedback at a rate faster than the renderer can generate complete frames, at the cost of producing approximate images during camera...
