Brain-Machine Interfaces (BMIs) transform the brain activity of a human operator into executable commands that can be sent to a machine, usually a computer or robot, to perform intended tasks. In addition to current biomedical applications, available techn ...
Mobile service robots are going to play an increasing role in the society of humans. Voice-enabled interaction with service robots becomes very important, if such robots are to be deployed in real-world environments and accepted by the vast majority of pot ...
Robot Programming by Demonstration (RbD), also referred to as Learning by Imitation, explores user-friendly means of teaching a robot new skills. Recent advances in RbD have identified a number of key-issues for ensuring a generic approach to the transfer ...
The use of shared control techniques has a profound impact on the performance of a robotic assistant controlled by human brain signals. However, this shared control usually provides assistance to the user in a constant and identical manner each time. Creat ...
Head pose estimation is a research area which has many applications, e.g. in human computer interfaces design or in the analysis of people's focus-of-attention. The paper addresses the issue of head pose estimation, and makes two contributions. First it in ...
Feedback plays an important role when learning to use a Brain-Computer Interface (BCI). Here we compare visual and haptic feedback in a short experiment. By imagining left and right hand movements, six subjects tried to control a BCI with the help of eithe ...
Brain-computer interfaces, as any other interaction modality based on physiological signals and body channels (e.g., muscular activity, speech and gestures), are prone to errors in the recognition of subject's intent. In this paper we exploit a unique feat ...
Brain-computer interface (BCI) systems allow the user to interact with a computer by merely thinking. Successful BCI operation depends on the continuous adaptation of the system to the user and on the user motivation. This paper presents a model of continu ...
Head pose estimation is a research area which has many applications, e.g. in human computer interfaces design or in the analysis of people's focus-of-attention. The paper addresses the issue of head pose estimation, and makes two contributions. First it in ...
In this paper we motivate the need for on-line learning in brain-computer interfaces (BCI) and illustrate its benefits with the simplest method, namely fixed learning rates. However, the use of this method is supported by the risk of hampering the user to ...
