Robust Color Segmentation for the RoboCup Domain
نویسندگان
چکیده
Color segmentation is crucial in robotic applications, such as RoboCup, where the relevant objects can be distinguished by their color. In these applications, real-time performance and robustness are primary concerns. We present a hybrid method for color segmentation based on seeded region growing (SRG) in which the initial seeds are provided by a conservative threshold color segmentation. The key to the robustness of our approach is to use multiple seeds to perform local blob growing, and then merge blobs that belong to the same region. We have implemented our technique on a team of Sony AIBO 4-legged robots, and have successfully tested it in the RoboCup 2001 competition.

Robust Color Segmentation Through Adaptive Color Distribution Transformation
Color segmentation is typically the first step of vision processing for a robot operating in a colorcoded environment, such as RoboCup soccer, and many object recognition modules rely on that. Although many approaches to color segmentation have been proposed, in the official games of the RoboCup Four Legged League manual calibration is still preferred by most of the teams. In this paper we pres...

Potato image segmentation is an important part of image-based potato defect detection. This paper presents a robust potato color image segmentation through a combination of a fuzzy rule based system, an image thresholding based on Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimization and morphological operators. The proposed potato color image segmentation is robust against variation of background, distance and ...
متن کاملModified CLPSO-based fuzzy classification System: Color Image Segmentation
Fuzzy segmentation is an effective way of segmenting out objects in images containing both random noise and varying illumination. In this paper, a modified method based on the Comprehensive Learning Particle Swarm Optimization (CLPSO) is proposed for pixel classification in HSI color space by selecting a fuzzy classification system with minimum number of fuzzy rules and minimum number of incorr...
متن کاملA New Video Rate Region Color Segmentation and Classification for Sony Legged RoboCup Application
Whereas numerous methods are used for vision systems embedded on robots, only a few use colored region segmentation mainly because of the processing time. In this paper, we propose a real-time (i.e. video rate) color region segmentation followed by a robust color classification and region merging dedicated to various applications such as RoboCup four-legged league or an industrial conveyor whee...
متن کاملReal-Time Adaptive Colour Segmentation for the RoboCup Middle Size League
In order to detect objects using colour information, the mapping from points in colour space to the most likely object must be known. This work proposes an adaptive colour calibration based on the Bayes Theorem and chrominance histograms. Furthermore the object’s shape is considered resulting in a more robust classification. A randomised hough transform is employed for the ball. The lines of th...
