On this page you will find the Matlab code of our functionally sequenced scanpath similarity method that compares and evaluates scanpath similarity according to a task's inherent sequence of functional units. FuncSim reveals whether gaze characteristics are similar in the same functional units of a task, opposed to when participants are engaged in different functional units of the task. In addition, it calculates a random baseline, i.e. similarity of one of the observed scanpaths to its scrambled derivative....

Incremental Processing Architecture for Artificial Conversational Agents

This is IPAACA version 2, a mirror of the AG SCS development repository.

A tool-set for research related to insect vision:
ivTrace is a GUI utility for the analysis of behavioural data (video sequences)
ivRender is an OpenGL-based renderer for spherical images

Kinematic data of grasping movements directed towards virtual and real objects was generated for the MINDA and CORTESMA CITEC Projects.
Eleven right handed subjects (age: 24-39 years, 4 women) participated in a series of three experiments. All subjects had normal or corrected-to-normal vision and had no known impairments related to arm or hand movement. All subjects gave written informed consent to be part of the study. The experiment was carried out according to the principles laid out in the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki. Subjects performed all three experiments in the same order, starting with Experiment 1, directly followed by Experiment 2, and then Experiment 3....

Insects like the stick insect can walk on rough terrain, climb obstacles, and use their legs for other behavioural tasks such as searching or reaching. These complex movements are coordinated by a fairly small, experimentally amenable and reasonably well-studied nervous system. Because of the resource-efficient information processing for solving complex behavioural tasks, the analysis and modelling of insect locomotion have been proposed as a basis for improving artificial autonomous walking robots....

The toolbox is written in Java 1.7 and is compatible with MATLAB (R)....

XTT implements the Task-State-Pattern, to make task interaction easy and robust. Tasks are an appropriate model for any robot action that is not instantaneous (which, given the real-world, is almost all of them). For tasks, servers can report both when a task begins and when it ends independently, and there are also (optional) functions for updating task goals and canceling tasks, all in one consistent interface. Furthermore, the toolkit supports both synchronous and asynchronous use. ...
