Generalizing Bulk-Synchronous Parallel Processing for Data Science: From Data to Threads and Agent-Based Simulations

Christoph Koch, Peter Lindner, Zilu Tian, Val Tannen

We generalize the bulk-synchronous parallel (BSP) processing model to make it better support agent-based simulations. Such simulations frequently exhibit hierarchical structure in their communication patterns which can be exploited to improve performance. ...

Detecting Compensatory Motions and Providing Informative Feedback During a Tangible Robot Assisted Game for Post-Stroke Rehabilitation

Pierre Dillenbourg, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Barbara Bruno, Maximilian Jonas Wessel, Ayberk Özgür, Hala Khodr

Gamified rehabilitation tackles the problem of keeping patients engaged in, and motivated to do physical rehabilitation to improve its efficacy. However, with respect to standard rehabilitation, patients are freer to move about and may compensate their mot ...

Exploring Spatial Perspective Taking in Human-Robot Interaction

Elmira Yadollahi

Humans often rely on their perspective taking skills to thrive within the world's complex relations and connections. An adequate understanding of others' spatial perspectives can increase the quality of the interaction, not only perceptually but also cogni ...

Contextual Games: Multi-Agent Learning with Side Information

Maryam Kamgarpour, Andreas Krause, Ilija Bogunovic

We formulate the novel class of contextual games, a type of repeated games driven by contextual information at each round. By means of kernel-based regularity assumptions, we model the correlation between different contexts and game out- comes and propose ...

A Too to Design Interactive Characters Based on Embodied Cognition

Ronan Boulic, Joan Llobera Mahy

Creating interactive characters is one of the most challenging tasks of videogame design. In order to facilitate such an endeavor, we introduce a decisional and behavior synthesis architecture integrated in the game engine Unity3D. A distinguishing feature ...

Event-based, 6-DOF Camera Tracking from Photometric Depth Maps

Davide Scaramuzza

Event cameras are bio-inspired vision sensors that output pixel-level brightness changes instead of standard intensity frames. These cameras do not suffer from motion blur and have a very high dynamic range, which enables them to provide reliable visual in ...
