Special Issue on Visual Servoing

Vision Research special issue on “Visual attention”

This is the first of two parts of a special issue on the topic of ‘‘Visual attention’’. The second part of the special issue, which will be published shortly, will provide a thematic outline of the papers in both parts. The papers presented in this special issue are based on the Third International Workshop in Visual Attention that took place in October 2011 at the University of Allahabad in In...

Uncalibrated Visual Servoing in Reaching Tasks on Robotics & Automation Special Issue on Vision-based Control of Robot Manipulators

Designing robotic systems aimed to act in unstructured and generally dynamic environments , sensory capabilities become a key for intelligent behaviors. This paper describes a calibration-free approach to the problem of reaching an object in space under visual guidance. Servoing is based on binocular vision: a continuous measure of the end-eeector motion eld, derived from real-time computation ...

Introduction to the Special Issue on Visual Analytics

The information overload is a well-known phenomenon of the information age, since due to the progress in computer power and storage capacity over the last decades, data is produced at an incredible rate, and our ability to collect and store these data is increasing at a faster rate than our ability to analyze it. But, the analysis of these massive, typically messy and inconsistent, volumes of d...

Special Issue on Formal Methods for Visual Interaction (Editorial)

INTEREST IN THE DESIGN and development of interactive visual applications has increased considerably over the last few years. The underlying reason for this is the need to allow the maximum number of people to access software applications for the widest number of purposes and in the widest number of contexts. There is also growing interest in the application of formal methods to visual interact...
