A Vision System for Environment Representation: From Landscapes to Landmarks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper a complete strategy for scene modeling from sensory data acquired in a natural environment is defined. This strategy is applied to outdoor mobile robotics and goes from environment recognition to landmark extraction. In this work, environment is understood as a specific kind of landscape, for instance, a prairie, a forest, a desert, etc. A landmark is defined as a remarkable object in the environment. In the context of outdoor mobile robotics a landmark has to be useful to accomplish localization and navigation tasks.

The Representation of European Landscapes in Later Safavid Painting
From the middle of the Safavid era, with the expansion of relations with the West, European landscapes were used in various ways in the composition of paintings called “FARANGI-SAZI”. In this article, by adopting a hermeneutic approach, the epistemological context necessary for the emergence of “landscape painting” as an independent genre in European painting has been studied and then the trans...
متن کامل3D Hand Motion Evaluation Using HMM
Gesture and motion recognition are needed for a variety of applications. The use of human hand motions as a natural interface tool has motivated researchers to conduct research in the modeling, analysis and recognition of various hand movements. In particular, human-computer intelligent interaction has been a focus of research in vision-based gesture recognition. In this work, we introduce a 3-...
متن کاملA visual landmark framework for mobile robot navigation
Vision has become a major element in mobile robot navigation and many strategies relying on images have already been proposed, based on environment representation either by image databases[10] or by visual landmarks. Classically, the latter are detected by the robot, mapped into the environment representation and recognized during the execution of a navigation task. In general, the robot’s posi...
متن کاملVision-based motion planning and exploration algorithms for mobile robots
This paper considers the problem of systematically exploring an unfamiliar environment in search of one or more recognizable targets. The proposed exploration algorithm is based on a novel representation of environments containing visual landmarks called the boundary place graph. This representation records the set of recognizable objects (landmarks) that are visible from the boundary of each c...
متن کاملFusion of Gps and Machine Vision for Absolute Vehicle Positioning
This paper describes the use of data from a Geographical Information System (GIS) as a priori knowledge to be exploited for reliable and consistent vehicle positioning. The line-of-sight approach taken by GPS creates location inaccuracies especially in urban areas, or leads to complete signal loss when underground, in tunnels, etc. Many attempts have been made to complement GPS with dead reckon...
