This paper addresses a novel approach to recognizing several humans' postures from just a single eigenspace and investigates a practical problem associated with dress changes in recognizing human postures automatically employing an eigenspace technique. A single eigenspace is prepared employing an ordinary man’s several orientations and various humans' postures are recognized from it. The dress...

background: diabetes mellitus is one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality all over the world. chronic high blood glucose is the root cause of developing future micro and macro vascular complications. in current study, we analyzed poorly controlled patients’ information by clustering method in order to find more homogenous sub-groups of patients for planning for further interv...

migration of people to urban areas from the rural areas usually comes with its challenges interms of infrastructural requirement and housing to cater for growing population. one of the challenge for the urbandwellers in nigeria is that of adequate housing. the inability of the government to meet this demand has seen thepeople concerned seeking alternative solutions to housing need. the resultin...

1. はじめに 人型ロボットの動作設計は,ロボットが環境や自己と干渉しな い等の幾何学的条件や,転倒しない等の力学的条件を満たす数十 個の関節軌道を求める大規模境界値問題である.人型ロボット普 及には,この困難さを感じさせず,専門知識がなくとも動作設計 可能な手段が必要となる.これまでに,与えられた動作軌道を, 幾何学的・力学的拘束条件を満たすように修正する方法が提案さ れてきた [1] [2] [3].修正前に与える動作概略は,モーションキャ プチャ [4] や人形型デバイス [5]を用いて作成する方法があるが, 大掛かりな装置が要求される問題がある.これに対し,CGアニ メーションの分野で利用されている,幾つかの特徴的な姿勢の補 間 [6][7] によって動作を作成する方法 [8] は,コンピュータがあ れば手軽に行える.特徴的な姿勢は,3DCG 表示されたロボッ トモデルの任意...

This paper describes a control scheme combining a mobile platform which is commanded at the velocity level with a position controlled robot arm. Based on separate controllers for both subsystems a method for force guidance is proposed which provides control of the tool location and of the posture of the mobile platform. Only a single force/torque sensor is used for this purpose. Also the slower...

If crops with considerable spacing can be arranged in a precise rectangular pattern, mechanical weeding can become an alternative to chemical methods by enabling treatment in two perpendicular directions. Realisation of such a pattern requires innovation of seedling transplanters. A computer vision-based sensing system was developed for detecting a transplanters posture relative to the crop. A ...

Entertainment, education and training are changing because of multi-party interaction technology. In the past we have seen the introduction of embodied agents and robots that take the role of a museum guide, a news presenter, a teacher, a receptionist, or someone who is trying to sell you insurances, houses or tickets. In all these cases the embodied agent needs to explain and describe. In this...
