Active Exploration Using Bayesian Models for Multimodal Perception
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this text we will present a novel solution for active perception built upon a probabilistic framework for multimodal perception of 3D structure and motion — the Bayesian Volumetric Map (BVM). This solution applies the notion of entropy to promote gaze control for active exploration of areas of high uncertainty on the BVM so as to dynamically build a spatial map of the environment storing the largest amount of information possible. Moreover, entropy-based exploration is shown to be an efficient behavioural strategy for active multimodal perception.

Multimodal Active Exploration Using a Bayesian Approach
In this text, we use a Bayesian framework for active multimodal perception of 3D structure and motion — which, while not strictly neuromimetic, finds its roots in the role of the dorsal perceptual pathway of the human brain — to implement a strategy of active exploration based on entropy. The computational models described in this text support a robotic implementation of multimodal active perce...
متن کاملBayesian Cognitive Models for 3 D Structure and Motion Multimodal Perception
Humans use various sensory cues to extract crucial information from the environment. With a view of having robots as human companions, we are motivated towards helping to develop a knowledge representation system along the lines of what we know about us. While recent research has shown interesting results, we are still far from having concepts and algorithms that interpret space, coping with th...

In this text we present the real-time implementation of a Bayesian framework for robotic multisensory perception on a graphics processing unit (GPU) using the Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA). As an additional objective, we intend to show the benefits of parallel computing for similar problems (i.e. probabilistic grid-based frameworks), and the user-friendly nature of CUDA as a progra...
متن کاملA Bayesian Hierarchical Framework for Multimodal Active Perception
We will present a Bayesian hierarchical framework for multimodal active perception, devised to be emergent, scalable and adaptive, together with some representative experimental results. This framework, while not strictly neuromimetic, finds its roots in the role of the dorsal perceptual pathway of the human brain. Its composing models build upon a common spatial configuration that is naturally...
متن کاملAnnexes Bayesian Models for Multimodal Perception of 3D Structure and Motion
In this text we will formalise a novel solution, the Bayesian Volumetric Map (BVM), as a framework for a metric, short-term, egocentric spatial memory for multimodal perception of 3D structure and motion. This solution will enable the implementation of top-down mechanisms of attention guidance of perception towards areas of high entropy/uncertainty, so as to promote active exploration of the en...
