This document contains additional comparisons of our approach and commercial software [1] on large real-world datasets. 1 Additional ExperimentsSection 2.3 of the paper introduced commercial software [1] as a state-of-the-art technique of pipe-run reconstruction. We purchased a license and used theirautomatical pipeline to reconstruct pipe-runs from the same dataset in Figure11 ...

Summary results of the assessment of new tools for the generation of reconfigurable screen media (ShapeShifting media) and of eight experimental ShapeShifting screen media productions covering genres including news, documentary and drama, are presented from the project New Millennium, New Media.

The use of Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) as a tool in assessing acquisition and development program risk has steadily increased over the past several years. There is considerable evidence to support the utility of using TRLs as part of a risk assessment, but there are some difficulties in using TRLs with software, especially Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) software technology and products....

In this paper, we describe a field experiment of an autonomous mobile system to navigate users and to estimate the self-position indoors, where it is impossible to receive a GPS signal. Many users utilize positional information systems of GPS. However, because positional information computed using GPS signal is available only in the locations with satellite signal reception, it is difficult to ...
