— We describe a method for an autonomous robot to efficiently locate one or more distinct objects in a realistic environment using monocular vision. We demonstrate how to effic...
Change detection by background subtraction is a common approach to detect moving foreground. The resulting difference image is usually thresholded to obtain objects based on pixel ...
— In this paper, we introduce a cognitive approach for object tracking from a mobile platform. The approach is based on a biologically motivated attention system which is able to...
We present an extension to the Jojic and Frey (2001) layered sprite model which allows for layers to undergo affine transformations. This extension allows for affine object pose t...
