The Multi-modal Mentor System

by Andrew Marriott, Hayman Rd Bentley, Amel Holic
"... The changing demographic of an aging society is having a profound impact on society. The use of new technologies is central to efforts to reduce the strain of caring for the elderly, to aid in their independence and to maintain a minimal standard of living. One mechanism to achieve these goals lies ..."

within the discipline of Human Computer Interaction. This paper details a novel prototype PC-based system called Pandora that uses the multi-modal facilities of the Mentor Mentor System- a Java-based client-server Dialogue Manager (DM)- to help the Elderly. Mentor

Multi-Modal System for Locating Heads and Faces

by Hans Peter Graf, Eric Cosatto, Dave Gibbon, Michael Kocheisen, Eric Petajan - In Proc. 2nd Int. Conf. on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition , 1996
"... We designed a modular system using a combination of shape analysis, color segmentation and motion information for locating reliably heads and faces of different sizes and orientations in complex images. The first of the system's three channels does a shape analysis on gray-level images to de ..."

Multi-modal Semantic Place Classification

by A. Pronobis, O. Martínez Mozos, B. Caputo, P. Jensfelt , 2010
"... The ability to represent knowledge about space and its position therein is crucial for a mobile robot. To this end, topological and semantic descriptions are gaining popularity for augmenting purely metric space representations. In this paper we present a multi-modal place classification system that ..."

Biologically motivated multi-modal processing of visual primitives

by Norbert Krüger, Markus Lappe, Florentin Wörgötter - THE INTERDISCIPLINARY JOURNAL OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE SIMULATION OF BEHAVIOUR , 2003
"... We describe a new kind of image representation in terms of local multi–modal Primitives. These Primitives are motivated by processing of the human visual system as well as by functional considerations. We discuss analogies of our representation to human vision and concentrate specifically on the imp ..."

Multi-Modal Person Authentication

by J. Bigün, B. Duc, F. Smeraldi, S. Fischer, A. Makarov , 1997
"... This paper deals with the elements of a multi-modal person authentication systems. Test procedures for evaluating machine experts as well as machine supervisors based on leave-one-out principle are described. Two independent machine experts on person authentication are presented along with their ind ..."

Multi-modal Stereognosis

by Luiz Goncalves, Roderic Grupen, Antonio Oliveira , 1999
"... Introduction In this work, vision and touch (artificial) senses are integrated in a cooperative active system. Multi-modal sensory information acquired on-line is used by a robotic agent to perform real-time tasks involving categorization of objects. The visual-touch system proposed is able to fove ..."

Multi-Modal Tracking by Identification

by Rok Mandeljc , Stanislav Kovačič , Matej Kristan , Janez Perš , 2012
"... Abstract In this paper, we demonstrate, by performing quantitative evaluation, the benefit of tracking by identification over state-of-the-art identification by tracking. We evaluate four localization and tracking systems: a commercial localization system based on radio technology, a state-ofthe-ar ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
-ofthe-art computer-vision algorithm that uses multiple calibrated cameras to perform identification by tracking, and two multi-modal tracking-by-identification systems that have been developed in our laboratory. We briefly describe all four systems and evaluation metric, and present evaluation on a challenging
