Uncertainty Propagation and Bayesian Fusion on Unimodular Lie Groups from a Parametric Perspective

no code implementations7 Jan 2024 Jikai Ye, Gregory S. Chirikjian

We address the problem of uncertainty propagation and Bayesian fusion on unimodular Lie groups.

Uncertainty Propagation on Unimodular Matrix Lie Groups

no code implementations6 Dec 2023 Jikai Ye, Amitesh S. Jayaraman, Gregory S. Chirikjian

This paper addresses uncertainty propagation on unimodular matrix Lie groups that have a surjective exponential map.

A Lie-Theoretic Approach to Propagating Uncertainty Jointly in Attitude and Angular Momentum

no code implementations6 Sep 2023 Amitesh S. Jayaraman, Jikai Ye, Gregory S. Chirikjian

Dynamic state estimation, as opposed to kinematic state estimation, seeks to estimate not only the orientation of a rigid body but also its angular velocity, through Euler's equations of rotational motion.

Primitive-based Shape Abstraction via Nonparametric Bayesian Inference

no code implementations28 Mar 2022 Yuwei Wu, Weixiao Liu, Sipu Ruan, Gregory S. Chirikjian

In this paper, we propose a novel non-parametric Bayesian statistical method to infer an abstraction, consisting of an unknown number of geometric primitives, from a point cloud.

Robust and Accurate Superquadric Recovery: a Probabilistic Approach

1 code implementation CVPR 2022 Weixiao Liu, Yuwei Wu, Sipu Ruan, Gregory S. Chirikjian

Among geometric primitives, superquadrics are well known for their ability to represent a wide range of shapes with few parameters.

Can I Pour into It? Robot Imagining Open Containability Affordance of Previously Unseen Objects via Physical Simulations

1 code implementation5 Aug 2020 Hongtao Wu, Gregory S. Chirikjian

In this letter, we propose a novel method for robots to "imagine" the open containability affordance of a previously unseen object via physical simulations.

Is That a Chair? Imagining Affordances Using Simulations of an Articulated Human Body

1 code implementation17 Sep 2019 Hongtao Wu, Deven Misra, Gregory S. Chirikjian

In our method, the robot "imagines" the affordance of an arbitrarily oriented object as a chair by simulating a physical sitting interaction between an articulated human body and the object.

Curvature: A signature for Action Recognition in Video Sequences

no code implementations30 Apr 2019 He Chen, Gregory S. Chirikjian

In this paper, a novel signature of human action recognition, namely the curvature of a video sequence, is introduced.

Quotienting Impertinent Camera Kinematics for 3D Video Stabilization

no code implementations21 Mar 2019 Thomas W. Mitchel, Christian Wuelker, Jin Seob Kim, Sipu Ruan, Gregory S. Chirikjian

The foundation of this approach is a novel camera motion model that allows for real-world camera poses to be recovered directly from 3D motion fields.

Signal Alignment for Humanoid Skeletons via the Globally Optimal Reparameterization Algorithm

no code implementations18 Jul 2018 Thomas W. Mitchel, Sipu Ruan, Gregory S. Chirikjian

Here, we introduce a variant of GORA for humanoid action recognition with skeleton sequences, which we call GORA-S. We briefly review the algorithm's mathematical foundations and contextualize them in the problem of action recognition with skeleton sequences.
