Team design is an important issue in manned planetary exploration. This paper demonstrates the feasibility of studying team design by using a computational policy approach for requirements engineering and system implementation.
We present a technique for the integration of data from a ship based multibeam along with multibeam and stereo images gathered from an AUV. The novelty of the proposed technique is the ability to integrate data-sets at different resolutions to produce one consistent model that captures not only high resolution images of the seafloor but sweeping geological features that span kilometers.
A method is presented for the detection and classification of New Zealand license plates in real time. The classifier and detector both use a convolutional network which can efficiently be applied to images and is trained using gradient-based learning. The detector has an error rate of less than one percent for individual characters and can find multiple plates in a single image. The classifier has...
One of the challenges of building a policy management framework is making it flexible enough to handle differences in both policy semantics and enforcement strategies across multiple platforms and application domains. The system must be expressive enough in each application domain to provide the richness needed for interesting policies. It must also provide a simple and flexible enforcement mechanism...
The KAoS policy management framework pioneered the use of semantically-rich ontological representation and reasoning to specify, analyze, deconflict, and enforce policies [9, 10]. The framework has continued to evolve over the last five years, inspired by both technological advances and the practical needs of its varied applications. In this paper, we describe how these applications have motivated...
Several key aspects of coordination such as teamwork, roles, and communication, are enabled and driven by, and even largely defined by, various systems of regulation. One key feature of all these elements in human coordination is their dynamic nature. We have developed a framework to provide a dynamic regulatory system for supporting coordination in human-robot teamwork. This framework supports the...
This paper addresses the problems of real-time localization and 3D depth estimation across disparate sensing systems. The sensing systems include wireless microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensor networks, such as MICA sensors by Crossbow Inc., radio frequency identification (RFID) tags and cameras that capture a variety of spectra. Some of the sensing is adaptive in time and space by using a...
