Energy Efficient Robot Rendezvous
2007
Fourth Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV '07)
The second method is a computationally cheap heuristic that computes a local heading for each robot: by iterating this method, all robots arrive at the globally optimal location. ...
The first method computes an approximate globally optimal meeting point using numerical simplex minimization. ...
Local Rendezvous Method The local method works by computing the conjugate gradient and prescribing the direction each robot should move in based on this gradient. ...

Camera Sensor Model for Visual SLAM
2007
Fourth Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV '07)
We conclude that the error distribution of a camera sensor follows a Gaussian distribution, based on the Geary's test, and the magnitude of the error variance is linearly related to the range between the ...

Extrinsic Recalibration in Camera Networks
2007
Fourth Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV '07)
Recalibration is done using pairs of essential matrices, based on image point correspondences. Unlike other approaches, we do not explicitly compute any 3D structure for our calibration purposes. ...
In this paper we present an efficient algorithm to detect when the extrinsic parameters of a camera are no longer valid, and reintegrate the displaced camera into the previously calibrated camera network ...

Computing View-normalized Body Parts Trajectories
2007
Fourth Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV '07)
The proposed approach first extracts the 2D trajectories of both feet and of the head from tracked silhouettes. On that basis, it segments the walking trajectory into piecewise linear segments. ...
This paper proposes an approach to compute viewnormalized body part trajectories of pedestrians from monocular video sequences. ...

Surface-Based GICP
2018
2018 15th Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV)
Doing so, we are able to deal better with the artefacts that are typically present in lidar point clouds, including an inhomogeneous and sparse point density, noise and missing data. ...
Experiments on lidar sequences of the KITTI benchmark demonstrate that we are able to substantially reduce the positional error compared to the original GICP algorithm. ...
The kernel weights are then computed for each point as follows: w j = e − 1 2σ i (fj −fi) 2 (14) Using these weights, the distance kernel weighted centroid and covariance,x i and Σ w i , can be computed ...

Efficient indexing for strongly similar subimage retrieval
2007
Fourth Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV '07)
In subimage search, the user selects an image region and the retrieval system attempts to find matching subimages in an image database that are strongly similar. ...
The effectiveness of the approach is demonstrated experimentally on a variety of image databases. ...
A descriptor is computed from the gradients of the image patch around the interest point at the computed scale and orientation. ...

A non-myopic approach to visual search
2007
Fourth Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV '07)
We demonstrate this in simulation using POMDP models, focussing on two special cases: where the target object is contained within the related object, and where the target object is spatially adjacent to ...
Instead it is more efficient and leads to higher detection accuracy to first look for other related objects, that are easier to detect. ...
Acknowledgments We would like to thank Pantelis Elinas, Per-Erik Forssen, Jim Little, and Rob Sim for helpful comments on earlier drafts of the manuscript. ...

Extending Graph-Cut to Continuous Value Domain Minimization
2007
Fourth Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV '07)
Many practical problems in the area of computer vision are continuous-valued, and discrete optimization methods of graph-cut type cannot be applied directly. ...
The first method is an add-on for multiple-label graph-cut. In the second one, binary graph-cut is firstly used to generate regions of support within different ranges of the signal. ...
In many practical problems of computer vision, as for instance disparity estimation, we would like to have machine accuracy representation for the estimate. ...

Screen-Camera Calibration using a Spherical Mirror
2007
Fourth Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV '07)
Recent developments in the consumer market have indicated that the average user of a personal computer is likely to also own a webcam. ...
In addition, if the user provides the algorithm with the exact radius of the sphere in millimeters, the scale of the computed solution is uniquely defined. ...

Fourth Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV '07)
Pseudo-random codes are used to create artificial textures on a scene which are extracted and grouped in a confidence map to ensure reliable feature matching between pairs of images taken from two cameras ...
