We propose a method of improving the reconstruction of edges and corners in surface meshes of sparsely populated point clouds by exploiting the presence of planes in the scene, the calculated geometry of the cameras and the images themselves. By robustly identifying co-planar points in the point cloud, isolating suitable plane-pairs for intersection, identifying the regions-of-interest along th...

Hyperpolarized (13)C NMR spectroscopy can provide the sensitivity and spectral resolution to detect, identify and quantify low-populated reaction intermediates, thus yielding direct chemical information on reaction mechanisms in real-time assays.

The deployment of robots in dynamic, complex and uncertain environments populated by people is gaining more and more attention, from both research and application perspectives. The new challenge for the near future is to deploy intelligent social robots in public spaces to make easier and safer the use of these spaces. In this paper, we provide an overview of the COACHES project which addresses...

In recent years, advances in hardware technology have made it increasingly easy to collect large amounts of multidimensional data in an automated way. Such databases continuously grow over time, and are referred to as data streams. The behavior of such streams is sensitive to the underlying events which create the stream. In many applications, it is useful to predict abnormal events in the stre...

We present a survey of the polarization properties of mm-wavelength methanol masers, comprising both classes, and transitions from 84.5 to 157.0 GHz. Linear polarization is found in more than half of the observed objects, and circular polarization is tentatively detected in two sources. Class I and Class II CH3OH masers show similar polarization properties. The largest linear polarization is fo...
