— This paper presents an object active visual search behavior in a 3D environment performed by a HRP-2 humanoid robot. The search is formalized as an optimization problem in whic...
— Despite their popularity, occupancy grids cannot be directly applied to problems where the identity of the objects populating an environment needs to be taken into account (eg ...
In this paper we address the problem of on-line recognition of human activities taking place in a public area such as a shopping center. We consider standard activities; namely, en...
We present in this paper a novel object tracking system based on 3D contour models. For this purpose, we integrate two complimentary likelihoods, defined on local color statistics...
We propose a key frame extraction mechanism to aid the Structure from Motion (SfM) problem when dealing with image sequences from video cameras. Due to high frame rates (15 frames...
