Morals and markets.

The possibility that market interaction may erode moral values is a long-standing, but controversial, hypothesis in the social sciences, ethics, and philosophy. To date, empirical evidence on decay of moral values through market interaction has been scarce. We present controlled experimental evidence on how market interaction changes how human subjects value harm and damage done to third partie...

In [Sch 96c] we have introduced the use of Multidimensional Receptive Field Histograms for Probabilistic Object Recognition. In this paper we reverse the object recognition problem by asking the question, "where should we look?", when we want to verify the presence of an object, to track an object or to actively explore a scene. This paper describes the statistical framework from which we obtai...

Current automatic vision systems face two major challenges: scalability and extreme variability of appearance. First, the computational time required to process an image typically scales linearly with the number of pixels in the image, therefore limiting the resolution of input images to thumbnail size. Second, variability in appearance and pose of the objects constitute a major hurdle for robu...
