A reliable human skin detection method that is adaptable to different human skin colours and illu- mination conditions is essential for better human skin segmentation. Even though different human skin colour detection solutions have been…
Humans seemingly incorporate potential touch signals in their perception. Our goal is to equip robots with a similar capability, which we term Imagine2touch. Imagine2touch aims to predict the expected touch signal based on a visual patch…
Haptic sciences and technologies benefit greatly from comprehensive datasets that capture tactile stimuli under controlled, systematic conditions. However, existing haptic datasets collect data through uncontrolled exploration, which…
Although deep face recognition has achieved impressive progress in recent years, controversy has arisen regarding discrimination based on skin tone, questioning their deployment into real-world scenarios. In this paper, we aim to…
The integration of extra-robotic limbs/fingers to enhance and expand motor skills, particularly for grasping and manipulation, possesses significant challenges. The grasping performance of existing limbs/fingers is far inferior to that of…
Rapid deployment of new tactile sensors is essential for scalable robotic manipulation, especially in multi-fingered hands equipped with vision-based tactile sensors. However, current methods for inferring contact properties rely heavily on…
Face detection is one of the challenging tasks in computer vision. Human face detection plays an essential role in the first stage of face processing applications such as face recognition, face tracking, image database management, etc. In…
Tactile sensing has proven to be an invaluable tool for enhancing robotic perception, particularly in scenarios where visual data is limited or unavailable. However, traditional methods for pose estimation using tactile data often rely on…
Robotic grasping, the ability of robots to reliably secure and manipulate objects of varying shapes, sizes and orientations, is a complex task that requires precise perception and control. Deep neural networks have shown remarkable success…
Due to the complexity of modeling the elastic properties of materials, the use of machine learning algorithms is continuously increasing for tactile sensing applications. Recent advances in deep neural networks applied to computer vision…
We propose a haptic system that applies forces or skin deformation to the user's arm, rather than at the fingertips, for believable interaction with virtual objects as an alternative to complex thimble devices. Such a haptic system would be…
Hand gesture is one of the most important means of touchless communication between human and machines. There is a great interest for commanding electronic equipment in surgery rooms by hand gesture for reducing the time of surgery and the…
Despite advances in deep learning, robustness under domain shift remains a major bottleneck in medical imaging settings. Findings on natural images suggest that deep neural models can show a strong textural bias when carrying out image…
Automated surface-anomaly detection using machine learning has become an interesting and promising area of research, with a very high and direct impact on the application domain of visual inspection. Deep-learning methods have become the…
Stable and reliable grasp is critical to robotic manipulations especially for fragile and glazed objects, where the grasp force requires precise control as too large force possibly damages the objects while small force leads to slip and…
Genuine leather, such as the hides of cows, crocodiles, lizards and goats usually contain natural and artificial defects, like holes, fly bites, tick marks, veining, cuts, wrinkles and others. A traditional solution to identify the defects…
Accurate segmentation and statistical shape modeling of hand anatomy have significant implications for medical diagnostics, ergonomics, and biomechanics. This study proposes an AI-assisted reconstruction pipeline for segmenting and…
We investigate how high-resolution tactile sensors can be utilized in combination with vision and depth sensing, to improve grasp stability prediction. Recent advances in simulating high-resolution tactile sensing, in particular the TACTO…
Touch sensing can help robots understand their sur- rounding environment, and in particular the objects they interact with. To this end, roboticists have, in the last few decades, developed several tactile sensing solutions, extensively…
While gesture recognition using vision or robot skins is an active research area in Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC), this paper explores deep learning methods relying solely on a robot's built-in joint sensors, eliminating the need for…
