A Human Action Descriptor Based on Motion Coordination

no code implementations20 Nov 2019 Pietro Falco, Matteo Saveriano, Eka Gibran Hasany, Nicholas H. Kirk, Dongheui Lee

The second step enriches the descriptor considering minimum and maximum joint velocities and the correlations between the most informative joints.

A Preliminary Study on the Learning Informativeness of Data Subsets

no code implementations28 Sep 2015 Simon Kaltenbacher, Nicholas H. Kirk, Dongheui Lee

We prove the concept on human-written texts, and conjecture this work will reduce training data size of sequential instructions, while preserving semantic relations, when gathering information from large remote sources.

Towards Predicting First Daily Departure Times: a Gaussian Modeling Approach for Load Shift Forecasting

no code implementations16 Jul 2015 Nicholas H. Kirk, Ilya Dianov

We provide a review of the relevant state-of-the-art driving behavior features towards FDDT prediction, to then propose an approximated Gaussian method which qualitatively forecasts how many vehicles will depart within a given time frame, by assuming that departure times follow a normal distribution.

Towards Learning Object Affordance Priors from Technical Texts

no code implementations30 Oct 2014 Nicholas H. Kirk

Everyday activities performed by artificial assistants can potentially be executed naively and dangerously given their lack of common sense knowledge.
