Mode Estimation Using Pessimistic Scale Space Tracking
نویسندگان
چکیده
Estimation of the mode of a distribution over n from discrete samples is introduced and three methods for its solution are developed and evaluated. The first solution is based on Fréchet’s definition of central tendencies. We show that algorithms based on this approach have only limited success due to the non-differentiability of the Fréchet measures. The second solution is based on tracking maxima through a Scale Space built from the samples. We show that this is more accurate than the Fréchet approach, but that tracking to very fine scales is unwarranted and undesirable. For our third method we analyze the reliability of the information across scale using an exact bootstrap analysis. This leads to a modified version of the Scale Space approach where unreliable information is downgraded (pessimistically) so that tracking into such regions does not occur. This modification improves the accuracy of mode estimation. We conclude with demonstrations on high-dimensional real and synthetic data, which confirm the technique’s accuracy and utility.

Based on dynamic modeling, robust trajectory tracking control of attitude and position of a spherical mobile robot is proposed. In this paper, the spherical robot is composed of a spherical shell and three independent rotors which act as the inner driver mechanism. Owing to rolling without slipping assumption, the robot is subjected to two nonholonomic constraints. The state space representatio...

This paper presents results of a model–based approach to visual tracking and pose estimation for a moving polyhedral tool in position–based visual servoing. This enables the control of a robot in look-and-move mode to achieve six degree of freedom goal configurations. Robust solutions of the correspondence problem – known as “matching” in the static case and “tracking” in the dynamic one – are ...
