Multiview image matching methods typically require feature point correspondences. We propose a novel spatial-topology method that represents the space with a set of connected projective invariant-features. Typically, isolated features, such as corners, cannot be matched reliably. Hence, limitations are imposed on viewpoint changes, or projective invariant descriptions are needed. the fundamental matrix is discovered using stochastic optimization requiring a large number of features. In contrast, our enhanced feature set models connectivity in space, forming a unique configuration that can be matched with few features and over large viewpoint changes. Our features are derived from edges, their curvatures, and neighborhood relationships. A probabilistic spatial topology graph models the space using these features and a second graph represents the neighborhood relationships. Probabilistic graph matching is used to find feature correspondences. Our results show robust feature detection and an average 80% discovery rate of feature matches.

the autonomous soccer robot with conventional vision cameras has limited fields of view which can be overcome by Moving the robot, thus increasing the control difficulty. A omni-directional vision system uses a combination of lenses and mirrors placed in a carefully arranged configuration to capture a much wider field of view. this paper introduced study on omni-directional vision system applied in autonomous soccer robot and its imaging model. Mirror parameters of omni-directional vision sensor were designed using condition and equation of single viewpoint constraint, and dimension of the omni-directional vision system was determined. A set of models including reflect and refraction model were built. the relation between image point and corresponding world point was determined that can offer essential model and algorithm for omni-directional image process. their practicability is tested through the simulation and real image experiments.

this paper presents a real-time multi-view stereo algorithm, which is based on local winner-take-all optimization. When computing the disparity maps for a given view, the algorithm performs 3 steps: cost volume generation, cost volume merging, and disparity selection. the main focus of this paper is on the second step and a new cost volume merging method is proposed, which combines the adaptive weight and the Parzen window approaches. the proposed method can deal with noise and visibility problems effectively, even with poorly generated cost volumes as input. the experimental results demonstrate the validity of our presented approach.

this paper presents the design, implementation and experimental evaluation of a semi-humanoid robotic system for autonomous multi-floor navigation. this robot, a Personal robot 2 named Charlie, is capable of operating an elevator to travel between rooms located on separate floors. Our goal is to create a robotic assistant capable of locating points of interest, manipulating objects, and navigating between rooms in a multi-storied environment equipped with an elevator. Taking the elevator requires the robot to (1) map and localize within its operating environment, (2) navigate to an elevator door, (3) press the up or down elevator call button, (4) enter the elevator, (5) press the control button associated withthe target floor, and (6) exit the elevator at the correct floor. To that end, this work integrates the advanced sensorimotor capabilities of the robot - laser range finders, stereo and monocular vision systems, and robotic arms - into a complete, task-driven autonomous system. While the design and implementation of individual sensorimotor processing components is a challenge in and of itself, complete integration in intelligent systems design often presents an even greater challenge. this paper presents our approach towards designing the individual components, with focus on machine vision, manipulation, and systems integration. We present and discuss quantitative results of our live robotic system, discuss difficulties faced and expose potential pitfalls.

We present a performance evaluation framework for visual feature extraction and matching in the visual simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) context. Although feature extraction is a crucial component, no qualitative study comparing different techniques from. the visual SLAM perspective exists. We extend previous image pair evaluation methods to handle non-planar scenes and the multiple image sequence requirements of our application, and compare three popular feature extractors used in visual SLAM: the Harris corner detector, the Kanade-Lucas-Tomasi tracker (KLT), and the Scale-Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT). We present results from a typical indoor environment in the form of recall/precision curves, and also investigate the effect of increasing distance between image viewpoints on extractor performance. Our results show that all methods can be made to perform well, although it is possible to distinguish between the three. We conclude by presenting guidelines for selecting a feature extractor for visual SLAM based on our experiments.

Strongly similar subimages contain different views of the same object. In subimage search, the user selects an image region and the retrieval system attempts to find matching subimages in an image database that are strongly similar Solutions have been proposed using salient features or '' interest points '' that have associated descriptor vectors. However, searching large image databases by exhaustive comparison of interest point descriptors is not feasible. To solve this problem, we propose a novel off-line indexing scheme based on the most significant bits (MSBs) of these descriptors. On-line search uses this index file to limit the search to interest points whose descriptors have the same MSB value, a process up to three orders of magnitude faster than exhaustive search. It is also incremental, since the index file for a union of a group of images can be created by merging the index files of the individual image groups. the effectiveness of the approach is demonstrated experimentally on a variety of image databases.

To solve the problem of low efficiency, time-consuming and laborious manual statistics of cotton seedling numbers, a cotton seedling counting algorithm based on semantic guidance was proposed. the algorithm consisted of a VGG-16 backbone network, a counting branch, and a segmentation branch. the VGG-16 backbone network is used to extract the features of the input image, segmentation branch as semantic guidance is assisted in counting branch learning, and the counting branch is used to generate predicted density map and obtain the number of seedlings in the image. On the cotton seedling dataset, compared to the best performance contrast counting algorithm, the proposed algorithm reduced MAE by 22%, RMSE by 17%, rMAE by 1.31%, rRMSE by 0.56%, and increased X2 by nearly 1%.
