Phone automation agents aim to autonomously perform a given natural-language user request, such as scheduling appointments or booking a hotel. While much research effort has been devoted to screen understanding and action planning, complex…

This article explores natural interaction modalities for human-cyber-physical systems (CPS) interaction in construction. CPS has been applied in construction for many purposes with the promise of improving the safety and productivity of…

This paper proposes passive WiFi indoor localization. Instead of using WiFi signals received by mobile devices as fingerprints, we use signals received by routers to locate the mobile carrier. Consequently, software installation on the…

This paper presents Rummaging Using Mutual Information (RUMI), a method for online generation of robot action sequences to gather information about the pose of a known movable object in visually-occluded environments. Focusing on…

In this short paper, we propose a technique for AI-based identification of modulation and coding schemes (MCS) in surrounding cellular signals. Based on the created MCS map, we evaluate the performance of indoor localization techniques.

Indoor human positioning has become increasingly important for applications such as health monitoring, breath monitoring, human identification, safety and rescue operations, and security surveillance. However, achieving robust indoor human…

While computers play an increasingly important role in every aspect of our lives, their inability to understand what tasks users are physically performing makes a wide range of applications, including health monitoring and context-specific…

Human navigation is facilitated through the association of actions with landmarks, tapping into our ability to recognize salient features in our environment. Consequently, navigational instructions for humans can be extremely concise, such…

In this study, we propose a novel positioning and searching system for emergency location services, namely the hyper-enhanced local positioning system (HELPS), which is applicable to all mobile phone users, including legacy feature phone…

Location awareness is a key factor for a wealth of wireless indoor applications. Its provision requires the careful fusion of diverse information sources. For agents that use radio signals for localization, this information may either come…

A Cyber-Physical-Social System (CPSS) is an emerging paradigm often understood as a physical and virtual space of interaction which is cohabited by humans and sensor-enabled smart devices. In such settings, human interaction behaviour is…

Robot-to-human object handover is an important step in many human robot collaboration tasks. A successful handover requires the robot to maintain a stable grasp on the object while making sure the human receives the object in a natural and…

Many tasks performed by two humans require mutual interaction between arms such as handing-over tools and objects. In order for a robotic arm to interact with a human in the same way, it must reason about the location of the human arm in…

This paper presents a mobile crowdsensing approach to identify the indoor points of interest (POI) by exploiting Wi-Fi similarity measurements. Since indoor environments are lacking the GPS positioning accuracy when compared to outdoors, we…

We design and develop a new shared Augmented Reality (AR) workspace for Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), which establishes a bi-directional communication between human agents and robots. In a prototype system, the shared AR workspace enables…

When operating a machine, the operator needs to know some spatial relations, like the relative location of the target or the nearest obstacle. Often, sensors are used to derive this spatial information, and visual displays are deployed as…

While the satellite-based Global Positioning System (GPS) is adequate for some outdoor applications, many other applications are held back by its multi-meter positioning errors and poor indoor coverage. In this paper, we study the…

Lifelong localization is crucial for enabling the autonomy of service robots. In this paper, we present an overview of our past research on long-term localization and mapping, exploiting geometric priors such as floor plans and integrating…

Sharing location traces with context-aware service providers has privacy implications. Location-privacy preserving mechanisms, such as obfuscation, anonymization and cryptographic primitives, have been shown to have impractical…

An increasingly important requirement for many novel applications is sensing the positions of people, equipment, etc. GPS technology has proven itself as a successfull technology for positioning in outdoor environments but indoor no…
