    RARE: people detection in crowded passages by range image reconstruction

    In this paper, we address the problem of people detection and tracking in crowded scenes using range cameras. We propose a new method for people detection and localisation based on the combination of backgroun...

    Relating conversational expressiveness to social presence and acceptance of an assistive social robot

    Exploring the relationship between social presence, conversational expressiveness, and robot acceptance, we set up an experiment with a robot in an eldercare institution, comparing a more and less social condi...

    Neural Q-learning

    In this paper we introduce a novel neural reinforcement learning method. Unlike existing methods, our approach does not need a model of the system and can be trained directly using the measurements of the syst...

    Coordinating Principal Component Analyzers

    Mixtures of Principal Component Analyzers can be used to model high dimensional data that lie on or near a low dimensional manifold. By linearly map** the PCA subspaces to one global low dimensional space, w...

    A Soft k-Segments Algorithm for Principal Curves

    We propose a new method to find principal curves for data sets. The method repeats three steps until a stop** criterion is met. In the first step, k (unconnected) line segments are fitted on the data. The secon...
