We propose a new statistical dictionary learning algorithm for sparse signals that is based on an α-stable innovation model. The parameters of the underlying model—that is, the atoms of the dictionary, the sparsity index α and the dispersion of the transfo ...
Background: Infrared reflectography (IRR) remains an important method to visualize underdrawing and compositional changes in paintings. Older IRR camera systems are being replaced with near-infrared cameras consisting of room temperature infrared detector ...
The goal of this paper is to perform end-point impedance measurements across dominant and nondominant hands while doing airbrush painting and to use the results for developing a robotic assistance scheme. We study airbrush painting because it resembles in ...
