Action and Perception in Man-Made Environments
We discuss the types of functional knowledge about an environment an agent can use in order to act effectively. We demonstrate (1) the use of structural regularities for acting efficiently, and (2) the use of physical regularities for designing effective sensors. These ideas are described in the context of an everyday task: grocery store shopping. We discuss how SHOPPER, a program, uses regular...
متن کاملExploiting structure in man-made environments
Robots are envisioned to take on jobs that are dirty, dangerous and dull, the three D’s of robotics. With this mission, robotic technology today is ubiquitous on the factory floor. However, the same level of success has not occurred when it comes to robots that operate in everyday living spaces, such as homes and offices. A big part of this is attributed to domestic environments being complex a...
متن کاملPerception and Action in Man-Made Environments
In this paper we discuss the types of functional knowledge about an environment an autonomous agent can use in order to act effectively. We show (1) how an agent can use knowledge of regularities to act efficiently, and (2) how a designer can simplify building useful sensors.
متن کاملUnderwater SLAM in man-made structured environments
This paper describes a navigation system for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) in partially structured environments, such as dams, harbors, marinas, and marine platforms. A mechanically scanned imaging sonar is used to obtain information about the location of vertical planar structures present in such environments. A robust voting algorithm has been developed to extract line features, toget...
متن کاملLocalizing Polygonal Objects in Man-Made Environments
Object detection is a significant challenge in Computer Vision and has received a lot of attention in the field. One such challenge addressed in this thesis is the detection of polygonal objects, which are prevalent in man-made environments. Shape analysis is an important cue to detect these objects. We propose a contour-based object detection framework to deal with the related challenges, incl...
