Activity Recognition

Activity recognition is an essential task that enables analysis of human behavior. We focused on recognition of activities from sensors that provide 3D coordinates (such as Vicon and Ubisense) using machine learning algorithms. We analyzed how sensor placement and amount of noise affects recognition accuracy and developed a series of filters to reduce noise in …

Search Pathology

Computer games based on the minimax principle usually produce better results when searching deeper. When researchers attempted to explain this formally using mathematical models, they found that under seemingly reasonable conditions minimax behaves unexpectedly: deeper search produced worse results – just the opposite of what happens in practice. This phenomenon was termed minimax pathology. In …
