This paper presents a dynamic thresholding algorithm for robotic apple detection. The algorithm enables robust detection in highly variable lighting conditions. The image is dynamically split into variable sized regions, where each region has approximately homogeneous lighting conditions. Nine thresholds were selected so as to accommodate three different illumination levels for three different dimensions...
This paper addresses the problem of real-time moving-object detection, classification and tracking in populated and dynamic environments. In this scenario, a mobile robot uses 2D laser range data to recognize, track and avoid moving targets. Most previous approaches either rely on pre-defined data features or off-line training of a classifier for specific data sets, thus eliminating the possibility...
Moving objects are present in many robotic applications. An accurate detection and motion estimation of these objects can be crucial for the success and safety of the robot and people surrounding it. This paper presents a new probabilistic framework for clustering dependent or relational data, applied to the problem of motion clustering and estimation. While conventional techniques such as scan differencing...
This paper presents a method for detecting people from images taken with a camera mounted on a robot. The purpose of the detection is avoiding people collision while robot is moving within an unknown environment. It combines two algorithms for this purpose. First, the appearance of people is learned using a set of Haar-like features and the Adaboost algorithm. This information is embedded by building...
This paper describes the path planning for the mobile robots, based on the Markov decision problems and the detection of dynamic objects using stereo-vision. The presented algorithms are developed for resolving problems with partially observable states. The algorithm is applied in an office environment and tested with a skid-steered robot. The created map combines two mapping theory, the topological...
A major issue in the field of mobile robotics today is the detection and tracking of moving objects (DATMO) from a moving observer. In dynamic and highly populated environments, this problem presents a complex and computationally demanding task. It can be divided in sub-problems such as robotpsilas relative motion compensation, feature extraction, measurement clustering, data association and targetspsila...
Active contour model and mean shift are both motion detection algorithms. Each of them has its own merits and shortcomings. An active contour tends to be tracked by noise points and results in a false boundary. A mean shift vector always points to the edge area when the start point is around the object With initial curves given near the objects in each image automatically, we presented a new motion...
