Human-Computer Interaction

A-Match - A-Match, the interface to the RETSINA Matchmaker, provides a web interface for users to advertise their agents, customize agents, find other agents, and query them.	AAM Fitting Algorithms - Many varieties of algorithms for fitting Cootes and Taylor's "Active Appearance Models" are developed.
Adaptive Web-Based Information Gathering and Filtering	Anthropocentric Robotics - The goal of this project is to improve human-robot interaction by using anthropological resesarch methods to study how people think about robots.
BeatBots - We are developing robots that can participate in coordinated rhythmic social interactions with people.	Cyberinfrastructure for Human-Robot Interaction Research - We seek to provide the field of Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) with collaborative mechanisms and methods for evaluation and exploratory analysis.
Distributed Design System - CODES - Providing people, tools, and information for integrated robotics design	Educational Robotics - We are developing both physical robots and curriculum that will make educational robotics viable at the middle school and high school levels.
EventScope - EventScope's goal is to develop a teaching tool that lets students actively explore 3D representations of NASA mission sites while participating in a cross-disciplinary curriculum that illustrates scientific theories and principles with real-world data from the site.	Facial Expression Analysis - Automatic facial expression encoding, extraction and recognition, and expression intensity estimation for the applications of MPEG4 application: teleconferencing, human-computer interaction/interface.
Human-Robot Interaction - The human-robot interaction project explores aspects of social interaction between people and robots, in particular how robots should be designed to provide people with appropriate interactions.	IBM ITA: Human-Agent Teamwork Models - We are developing models of human-agent teamwork for implementation in software agent systems.
Informedia Digital Video Library - Informedia Digital Video Library - Informedia is pioneering new approaches for automated video and audio indexing, navigation, visualization, summarization search, and retrieval and embedding them in systems for use in education, health care, defense intelligence and understanding of human activity.	Joystick Filtering for Movement Disorders - Filtering of joystick input for computer users with movement disorders
Mars Autonomy - Long-distance marsrover navigation with minimal human intervention.	Multimodal Diaries - Summarization of daily activity from multimodal data (audio, video, body sensors and computer monitoring)
PerceptOR (NREC) - We have developed a novel semi-autonomous unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) that includes a dedicated unmanned air vehicle - a "Flying Eye" - that flies ahead of the UGV to detect hazards before the onboard UGV sensors would.	Project LISTEN's Reading Tutor - Project LISTEN's Reading Tutor listens to children read aloud.
Reflective Agents with Distributed Adaptive Reasoning - The focus of the RADAR project is to build a cognitive assistant that embodies machine learning technology that is able to function without requiring expert tuning or specially trained users.	Social Robots - We are developing robots with personality.
Toy Robots Initiative - The Toy Robots Initiative aims to commercialize robotics technologies in the educational, toy and entertainment fields.	WebMate - A personal agent for World-Wide Web browsing that enhances searches and learns user interests.
XAlign - 2D/3D registration technique is used to analyze the postoperative pelvic radiographs and to measure placement of implants after total hip replacement
