This paper, presents an evaluation of Three Dimensional (3D) unistroke human arm gestures. Our scheme employs an accelerometer-based approach by using NintendoTM Wiimote as a gesture device. The system takes acceleration signals from Wiimote in order to, classify different gestures. It deals with numeric gestures, i.e., digits from 0 to 9 and simple mathematical operator gestures for addition, ...

Systems of algebraic equations with finitely many solutions arise in many areas of applied mathematics. Among these are motion planning, robotics, computer−aided design, and graphics. We will discuss the design and implementation of a hybrid symbolic− numeric method, and a Mathematica implementation thereof, that finds all solutions to an algebraic system. It makes use of numeric Gröbner bases ...

In this project the design of a TV remote control for elderly was approached taking into account their needs and their visual and motor deficiencies. Following the iterative design process preliminary user interviews were conducted and an easy to use TV remote control was designed as well as evaluated. The device is equipped with the basic controls for volume and changing channels and it also i...

One important quantitative property of CPS (Cyber-Physical Systems) software is its heap bound for which a precise analysis result needs to combine shape analysis and numeric reasoning. In this paper, we present a framework for statically finding symbolic heap bounds of CPS software. The basic idea is to separate numeric reasoning from shape analysis by first constructing an ASTG (Abstract Stat...

In this study, we demonstrate the use of natural language processing methods to extract, from nanomedicine literature, numeric values of biomedical property terms of poly(amidoamine) dendrimers. We have developed a method for extracting these values for properties taken from the NanoParticle Ontology, using the General Architecture for Text Engineering and a Nearly-New Information Extraction Sy...
