— Object recognition is a challenging problem for artificial systems. This is especially true for objects that are placed in cluttered and uncontrolled environments. To challenge...
— 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...
— Target tracking has two variants that are often studied independently with different approaches: target searching requires a robot to find a target initially not visible, and ...
