Automated Human Motion Analysis and Synthesis

Sena Kiciroglu

Human motion analysis and synthesis is integral to many computer vision applications, from autonomous driving to sports analysis. In this thesis, we address several problems in this domain. First we consider active viewpoint selection for pose estimation w ...

Out-of-body illusion induced by visual-vestibular stimulation

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Sophie Jacqueline Andrée Betka, Florian Lance, Hsin-Ping Wu, Estelle Nakul

Out-of-body experiences (OBEs) are characterized by the subjective feeling of being located outside one's physical body and perceiving one's own body from an elevated perspective looking downwards. OBEs have been correlated with abnormal integration of bod ...

3D Pose Based Feedback For Physical Exercises

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Isinsu Katircioglu, Sena Kiciroglu

Unsupervised self-rehabilitation exercises and physical training can cause serious injuries if performed incorrectly. We introduce a learning-based framework that identifies the mistakes made by a user and proposes corrective measures for easier and safer ...

Recent advances in fiber optic sensors for respiratory monitoring

Jiangtao Zhou

There is a growing need to measure respiratory rate (RR) in a variety of applications, including in clinical and occupational settings, as well as during physical exercises. Fiber optic sensors (FOSs) is an attractive solution for wearable RR monitoring be ...

Virtually Moving Base Stations for Energy Efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks

Martin Vetterli, Patrick Thiran, Runwei Zhang

Energy efficiency of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can be improved by moving base stations (BSs), as this scheme evenly distributes the communication load in the network. However, physically moving BSs is complicated and costly. In this paper, we propose ...

Combining language and space: Sentence bisection in unilateral spatial neglect

In line bisection right-brain-damaged patients with left spatial neglect show a rightward deviation, with respect to the line's physical center. In word bisection ortho-phonological features of the stimulus' final (right-sided) part modulate performance of ...

Tangible Paper Interfaces: Interpreting Pupils' Manipulations

Pierre Dillenbourg, Frédéric Kaplan, Patrick Jermann, Quentin Bonnard

Paper interfaces merge the advantages of the digital and physical world. They can be created using normal paper augmented by a camera+projector system. They are particularly promising for applications in education, because paper is already fully integrated ...

SeMiTri: A Framework for Semantic Annotation of Heterogeneous Trajectories

Karl Aberer, Stefano Spaccapietra, Christine Parent, Zhixian Yan, Dipanjan Chakraborty

GPS devices allow recording the movement track of the moving object they are attached to. This data typically consists of a stream of spatio-temporal (x,y,t) points. For application purposes the stream is transformed into finite subsequences called {\em tr ...

Towards a theoretical foundation for morphological computation with compliant bodies

Auke Ijspeert

The control of compliant robots is, due to their often nonlinear and complex dynamics, inherently difficult. The vision of morphological computation proposes to view these aspects not only as problems, but rather also as parts of the solution. Non-rigid bo ...

Neural basis of embodiment: distinct contributions of temporoparietal junction and extrastriate body area

Olaf Blanke, Christine Mohr

Embodiment, the sense of being localized within one's physical body, is a fundamental aspect of the self. Recently, researchers have started to show that self and body processing require distinct brain mechanisms, suggesting two posterior brain regions as ...

Functional and neural mechanisms of embodiment: importance of the vestibular system and the temporal parietal junction

Olaf Blanke

Embodiment, the sense of being localized within one's physical body, is a fundamental aspect of the self. Recent research shows that self and body processing as well as embodiment require distinct brain mechanisms. Here, we review recent clinical and neuro ...

Real-time interaction over the Internet : quality of service and end-to-end adaptation for remote experimentation

Christophe Salzmann

This dissertation studied real-time interaction over the Internet (RTI2) in the context of remote experimentation where there is typically a person at the client side interacting with physical equipments at the server side. Remote experimentations of mecha ...

A Robust Self-calibrating Transmission Scheme for On-Chip Networks

Giovanni De Micheli, Paolo Ienne, Patrick Thiran, Frédéric Worm

Systems-on-Chip (SoC) design involves several challenges, stemming from the extreme miniaturization of the physical features and from the large number of devices and wires on a chip. Since most SoCs are used within embedded systems, specific concerns are i ...
