Human-like Driving for Autonomous Vehicles using Vision-based Road Curvature Modeling

Most autonomous vehicles use GPS to determine vehicle location and heading. Using GPS for vehicle autonomous driving posts a few challenges. It does not look far ahead of the vehicle and requires frequent adjustment of vehicle heading. This results in an unstable control system and increases the chance of unstable driving behavior. Unlike this kind of passive or reactive control system, human d...

Multiplication in curvature processing.

Multiplication rather than addition of neural signals is believed to underpin a variety of sensory processes, yet the evidence for multiplication is rare. Here we provide psychophysical evidence for neural multiplication in human visual processing of shape. We show that the curvature of a contour is likely detected by a mechanism that multiplies rather than adds the signals from afferent sub-un...

A biologically plausible model of human radial frequency perception

Several recent studies have used radial frequency patterns to investigate intermediate-level shape perception, a critical precursor to object recognition. Here, we developed the first neural model of RF perception based on known V4 properties that exhibits many of the characteristics of human RF perception. The model is composed of two main parts: (1) recovery of object position using large-sca...

Orientation tuning of curvature adaptation reveals both curvature-polarity-selective and non-selective mechanisms.

We have used a curvature after-effect, or CAE, to explore whether curvature detectors are tuned for the overall orientation of a curve. CAEs were measured for half-cycle cosine-shaped contours as a function of adaptor contour orientation for a fixed test contour orientation. CAEs (i) were greatest when the adaptor and test contours had the same orientation, (ii) decreased rapidly as the orienta...

Curvature Based Corner Detector for Discrete, Noisy and Multi-Scale Contours

Estimating curvature on digital shapes is known to be a difficult problem even in high resolution images . Moreover the presence of noise contributes to the instability of the estimators and limits their use in many computer vision applications like corner detection. Several recent curvature estimators , which come from the discrete geometry community, can now process damaged data and integrate...

Affine Invariant Interesting Descriptors

Component trees or level set graphs have proved to be efficient tools for the extraction of stable features in many image analysis and understanding applications. In this paper, we explore the relation between level sets as feature descriptors and curvature scale-space. While most classical image feature detectors are based on linear scale-space, affine-invariant descriptors can be related to t...
