Using a picture (or a thousand words) for supporting spatial knowledge of a complex virtual environment

Cognitive Research, 2023
External representations powerfully support and augment complex human behavior. When navigating, people often consult external representations to help them find the way to go, but do maps or verbal instructions improve spatial knowledge or support ...

Edge-Guided Cross-Domain Learning with Shape Regression for Sketch-Based Image Retrieval

IEEE Access, 2019
Sketch-based image retrieval (SBIR) is a challenging task due to the cross-domain gap between sketch queries and natural images. In this paper, we propose a novel edge-guided cross-domain learning network to reduce the domain gap.

Automatic Creation of Tiled Maps in Two-Dimensional Top-Down Digital Role Playing Games

IEEE Access, 2023
Game level maps are fundamental for modern Digital Role Playing Computer Games. Creating such maps by hand is a time-consuming process. We propose an approach that can be applied to create such maps automatically.
