Periocular characteristics has gained substantial importance in recent times to supplement the performance of facial biometrics or as a stand-alone characteristics. While most of the current biometric systems for authentication or surveillance operate either in NIR spectrum or visible spectrum, the ocular information can be well utilized if a comparison of images from different spectra has to be conducted...
An autonomous navigation scheme for unmanned aerial vehicles is presented based on visual and inertial measurement information fusion without the known ground cooperative target. The UAV relative translation and rotation motion parameters are estimated by inter-frame image feature detection and tracking. Then the relative motion parameters are considered to be the relative pose measurements of two...
This paper presents a systematic approach to evaluate the tracking performance limits for different sensor modalities (lidar, radar and vision) and for combination of these sensors modalities. The Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) is used to predict the tracking performance limits for state of the art sensors such as the Continental ARS408 radar, Velodyne HDL-64E lidar and a state of the art monocular/stereo...
Automotive technology has been recently challenged with the issue of ensuring and improving road safety. Several academic institutions and automobile manufacturers are making efforts to develop technology for automotive safety. This study proposes an object recognition system based on the adaptive boosting algorithm that integrates a laser range finder and a camera. The laser range finder is used...
This paper proposes an improvement to FastSLAM. The approach is applicable when the dynamic model describing the motion of the camera has linear sub-structure. The core novelty of the proposed algorithm is to separate the consideration of the camera's dynamic model into two sub-models without constraining the two sub-models to have independent noise processes. In contrast to commonly-used FastSLAM...
