Over the last few years, social network systems have greatly increased users’ involvement in online content creation and annotation. Since such systems usually need to deal with a large amount of multimedia data, it becomes desirable to realize an interact ...
Research in multimedia is always investigating new ways of improving the immersive experience of the users. One current solution consists in designing systems which offer a high level of interactivity, such as multiview content navigation where the point o ...
One of the hallmarks of physical interaction between humans is haptic communication, i.e. an informa- tion exchange through force signals. Humans excel in tasks that require such interaction by adapting impedance and anticipating the partner’s intentions. ...
We describe an interactive table designed for supporting face-to-face collaborative learning. The table, Reflect, addresses the issue of unbalanced participation during group discussions. By displaying on its surface a shared visualization of member partic ...

The purpose of the demonstrator is to present a novel system for gesture-based interaction between humans and a swarm of mobile robots. The human interacts with the swarm by showing hand gestures using an orange glove. Following initial hand glove detectio ...
Conversations are a daily human activity, and a crucial part of face-to-face collaboration in virtually any context. It is also a highly engaging activity that requires the full attention of participants involved in it. This is why computers have generally ...
The respirasome is a multisubunit supercomplex of the respiratory chain in mitochondria. Here we report the 3D reconstruction of the bovine heart respirasome, composed of dimeric complex III and single copies of complex I and IV, at about 2.2-nm resolution ...

We present Fuzzy Prophet, a probabilistic database tool for constructing, simulating and analyzing business scenarios with uncertain data. Fuzzy Prophet takes externally defined probability distribution (so called VG-Functions) and a declarative descriptio ...
The field of rehabilitation has increasingly adopted commercially available games using perceptual interfaces as a means for physically training patients. The adaptability of such systems to match each person’s need and rehabilitation goal remains problema ...
This paper describes interactive applications used to illustrate an advanced course on multivariable control. The direct manipulation of features in graphics, such as eigenvectors in the phase plane or observer eigenvalues in the complex plane, gives the s ...
