Trajectories for optimal temporal integration in active vision systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
| We describe a general technique for specifying trajectories of controllable imaging parameters in an active vision system so that temporal integration processes are optimized. The technique assumes that a Kalman lter is used to perform the temporal integration of measurements and is based on determining, at each point in time, the set of imaging parameter values that minimizes the trace of the state estimate error covariance matrix. We present the application of this technique to the active vision task of extracting the location and orientation of a plane from shadows cast on it with a position controlled light source.

A Novel Method for Measuring the Quality of Temporal Integration in Public Transport Systems
Temporal coordination of services, as a crucial aspect of integration in public transport systems, has always been a big concern for transit planners and schedulers. One of the major issues in the way of coordinating transit services is the lack of a robust measure of effectiveness for assessing the quality of temporal coordination in public transport systems. Even though the network-wide summa...
متن کاملRobot Motion Vision Pait I: Theory
A direct method called fixation is introduced for solving the general motion vision problem, arbitrary motion relative to an arbitrary environment. This method results in a linear constraint equation which explicitly expresses the rotational velocity in terms of the translational velocity. The combination of this constraint equation with the Brightness-Change Constraint Equation solves the gene...

Several optimal three-dimensional orbital transfer problems are solved for thrust-limited spacecrafts using collocation and nonlinear programming techniques. The solutions for full nonlinear equations of motion are obtained where the integrals of the free Keplerian motion in three dimensions are utilized for coasting arcs. In order to limit the solution space, interior-point constraints are use...

In this paper we intend to generate some set of optimal trajectories according to the number of control points has been applied for parameterizing those using B-spline curves. The trajectories are used to generate an optimal locomotion gait in a crawling worm-like robot. Due to gait design considerations it is desired to minimize the required torques in a cycle of gait. Similar to caterpillars,...
