Robot Detection with a Cascade of Boosted Classifiers Based on Haar-Like Features
نویسندگان
چکیده
Accurate world modeling has great importance for efficient multirobot planning in robot soccer. Visual detection of the robots on the field in addition to all other objects of interest is crucial to achieve this goal. The problem of robot detection gets even harder when robots with only on board sensing capabilities, limited field of view, and restricted processing power are used. This work extends the real-time object detection framework proposed by Viola and Jones, and utilizes the unique chest and head patterns of Nao humanoid robots to detect them in the image. Experiments demonstrate rapid detection with an acceptably low false positive rate, which makes the method applicable for real-time use.

A Cascade of Boosted Generative and Discriminative Classifiers for Vehicle Detection
We present an algorithm for the on-board vision vehicle detection problem using a cascade of boosted classifiers. Three families of features are compared: the rectangular filters (Haar-like features), the histograms of oriented gradient (HoG), and their combination (a concatenation of the two preceding features). A comparative study of the results of the generative (HoG features), discriminativ...
متن کاملFace Detection Based on Fuzzy Cascade Classifier with Scale-invariant Features
Viola et al. have introduced a rapid object detection framework based on a boosted cascade of simple feature classifiers. In this paper we extend their work and achieve two contributions. Firstly, we propose a novel feature definition and introduce a feature shape mask to represent it. The defined features are scale-invariant which means the features can be rescaled easily and reduce the perfor...
متن کاملAn extended set of Haar-like features for rapid object detection
Recently Viola et al. [5] have introduced a rapid object detection scheme based on a boosted cascade of simple features. In this paper we introduce a novel set of rotated haar-like features, which significantly enrich this basic set of simple haar-like features and which can also be calculated very efficiently. At a given hit rate our sample face detector shows off on average a 10% lower false ...

متن کاملReal-time Face Detection Using Boosting Learning in Hierarchical Feature Spaces
Boosting-based methods have recently led to the state-of-the-art face detection systems. In these systems, weak classifiers to be boosted are based on simple, local, Haar-like features. However, it can be empirically observed that in later stages of the boosting process, the non-face examples collected by bootstrapping become very similar to the face examples, and the classification error of Ha...
