Towards Learning the Foundations of Manipulation Actions with Unguided Exploration
(2021)
Human infants are not born with the ability to reach and grasp. But after months of typical development, infants are capable of reaching and grasping reliably. During this time, the infant receives minimal guidance and ...
The Modulatory Effects of Visual Speech on Auditory Speech Perception: A Multi-Modal Investigation of How Vision Alters the Temporal, Spatial and Spectral Components of Speech
(2022)
Visual speech information, especially that provided by the mouth and lips, is important during face-to-face communication. This has been made more evident by the increased difficulty of speech perception because mask usage ...
Developing and Applying a Design Framework to Prepare Electronic Health Record Data for Time-Series Modeling
(2021)
Well-prepared data for predictive modeling often yields better performance, but preparing data is time-consuming and requires domain expertise. This is especially true in early warning systems, or time-series prediction ...
Finding the Grammar of Generative Craft
(2021)
Art and craft design is challenging even with the assistance of computer-aided design tools. Despite the increasing availability and intelligence of software and hardware, artists continue to find gaps between their practices ...
Learning to Generate 3D Training Data
(2020)
Human-level visual 3D perception ability has long been pursued by researchers in computer vision, computer graphics, and robotics. Recent years have seen an emerging line of works using synthetic images to train deep ...
Efficient Belief Propagation for Perception and Manipulation in Clutter
(2020)
Autonomous service robots are required to perform tasks in common human indoor environments. To achieve goals associated with these tasks, the robot should continually perceive, reason its environment, and plan to manipulate ...
Towards Free, Open, and Ubiquitous Hardware Design
(2022)
In 1965, Gordon Moore posited that the number of transistors on an integrated circuit would double every 18 months. With some adjustments, the prediction largely remained true for decades and revolutionized technology as ...
Collection and Analysis of Driving Videos Based on Traffic Participants
(2021)
Autonomous vehicle (AV) prototypes have been deployed in increasingly varied environments in recent years. An AV must be able to reliably detect and predict the future motion of traffic participants to maintain safe operation ...
Data-Driven Modeling of Compressible Reacting Flow Using Hardware-Oriented Algorithms
(2022)
High-fidelity numerical simulations of combustion processes in next-generation hypersonic propulsion devices (including, but not limited to, rotating detonation engines and scramjets) play a crucial role in enabling robust ...
Designing AI Experiences: Boundary Representations, Collaborative Processes, and Data Tools
(2021)
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed our everyday interactions with technology through automation, intelligence augmentation, and human-machine partnership. Nevertheless, we regularly encounter undesirable and often ...
