Towards the Prevention of Dyslexia
(2005-10-18)
Previous studies have shown that dyslexic individuals who supplement windowed reading practice with intensive small-scale hand-eye coordination tasks exhibit marked improvement in their reading skills. Here we examine ...
Learning to Trade with Insider Information
(2005-10-07)
This paper introduces algorithms for learning how to trade usinginsider (superior) information in Kyle's model of financial markets.Prior results in finance theory relied on the insider having perfectknowledge of the ...
Asymptotics of Gaussian Regularized Least-Squares
(2005-10-20)
We consider regularized least-squares (RLS) with a Gaussian kernel. Weprove that if we let the Gaussian bandwidth $\sigma \rightarrow\infty$ while letting the regularization parameter $\lambda\rightarrow 0$, the RLS solution ...
Teaching an Old Robot New Tricks: Learning Novel Tasks via Interaction with People and Things
(2003-06-20)
As AI has begun to reach out beyond its symbolic, objectivist roots into the embodied, experientialist realm, many projects are exploring different aspects of creating machines which interact with and respond to the world ...
Stereo-Based Head Pose Tracking Using Iterative Closest Point and Normal Flow Constraint
(2003-05-01)
In this text, we present two stereo-based head tracking techniques along with a fast 3D model acquisition system. The first tracking technique is a robust implementation of stereo-based head tracking designed for ...
Compact Representations for Fast Nonrigid Registration of Medical Images
(2003-07-04)
We develop efficient techniques for the non-rigid registration of medical images by using representations that adapt to the anatomy found in such images. Images of anatomical structures typically have uniform intensity ...
Safe Distributed Coordination of Heterogeneous Robots through Dynamic Simple Temporal Networks
(2003-05-30)
Research on autonomous intelligent systems has focused on how robots can robustly carry out missions in uncertain and harsh environments with very little or no human intervention. Robotic execution languages such as RAPs, ...
A Statistical Image-Based Shape Model for Visual Hull Reconstruction and 3D Structure Inference
(2003-05-22)
We present a statistical image-based shape + structure model for Bayesian visual hull reconstruction and 3D structure inference. The 3D shape of a class of objects is represented by sets of contours from silhouette ...
Online Learning of Non-stationary Sequences
(2003-06-12)
We consider an online learning scenario in which the learner can make predictions on the basis of a fixed set of experts. The performance of each expert may change over time in a manner unknown to the learner. We formulate ...
Segmentation and Alignment of Speech and Sketching in a Design Environment
(2003-02-01)
Sketches are commonly used in the early stages of design. Our previous system allows users to sketch mechanical systems that the computer interprets. However, some parts of the mechanical system might be too hard or too ...
