We present a novel method that is able to track a complex deformable object in interaction with a hand. This is achieved by formulating and solving an optimization problem that jointly considers the hand, the deformable object and the hand/object contact points. The optimization evaluates several ha…
Given two action sequences, we are interested in spotting/co-segmenting all pairs of sub-sequences that represent the same action. We propose a totally unsupervised solution to this problem. No a-priori model of the actions is assumed to be available. The number of common sub-sequences may be unknow…
We present a novel, non-intrusive approach for estimating contact forces during hand-object interactions relying solely on visual input provided by a single RGB-D camera. We consider a manipulated object with known geometrical and physical properties. First, we rely on model-based visual tracking t…
