For making artificial systems collaborate with group-living animals, the scientific challenge is to build artificial systems that can perceive, communicate to, interact with and adapt to animals. When such capabilities are available then it should be possi ...
We present Disambiguation canvas, a technique for selection by progressive refinement using a mobile device and consisting of two steps. During the first, the user defines a subset of objects through the orientation sensors of the device and a volume-casti ...
It has been shown repeatedly that iterative relevance feedback is a very efficient solution for content-based image retrieval. However, no existing system scales gracefully to hundreds of thousands or millions of images. We present a new approach dubbed Hi ...
We address the problem of person independent 3D gaze estimation using a remote, low resolution, RGB-D camera. The approach relies on a sparse technique to reconstruct normalized eye test images from a gaze appearance model (a set of eye image/gaze pairs) a ...
Content-based image retrieval systems have to cope with two different regimes: understanding broadly the categories of interest to the user, and refining the search in this or these categories to converge to specific images among them. Here, in contrast wi ...
This paper presents the results of an original design process-oriented user study conducted on an interactive expert system specifically developed for full year, climate-based daylighting design support. The aim of the study was to determine how well its d ...

This article first describes a method for extracting and classifying handwritten annotations on printed documents using a simple camera integrated in a lamp. The ambition of such a research is to offer a seamless integration of notes taken on printed paper ...
As e-commerce has evolved into its second generation, where the available products are becoming more complex and their abundance is almost unlimited, the task of locating a desired choice has become too difficult for the average user. Therefore, more effor ...
This paper describes the usability evaluation of a WebGIS. The system under evaluation has been developed for a real-world community in the Swiss canton de Vaud, namely for two people who are involved in wine making. The system's usability is tested with u ...
