Abstract. Most visual Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM) methods use interest points as landmarks in their maps of the environment. Often the interest points are detected...
Local appearance models in the neighborhood of salient image features, together with local and/or global geometric constraints, serve as the basis for several recent and effective...
We have developed a generic ontology of objects, and a knowledge base of everyday physical objects. Objects are represented as assemblies of functional features and their spatial r...
We present a performance evaluation framework for visual feature extraction and matching in the visual simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) context. Although feature extra...
This paper presents a 3D object recognition method that exploits the spatio-temporal coherence of image sequences to capture the object most relevant features. We start from an im...
