An improved algorithm for corner detection in object feature extraction is presented. Due to the introduction of a novel linear transformation, the feature of the chain-code can be applied more reasonably, not only could the position of the corner by detected precisely, but the threshold can be selected easily.

We define the concept of size functions. They are functions from the real plane to the natural numbers which describe the `shape of the objects' (seen as submanifolds of a Euclidean space). We give two different techniques of computation of size functions and some actual examples of computation. Moreover, we present the concept of deformation distance between manifolds (i.e., curves, surfaces, etc.). It is a distance which measures the `difference in shape' of two manifolds. Finally we point out the link between deformation distances and size functions.

In designing automated systems for interpretation or manipulation of laboratory image data such as that derived from microphotographs, it is often the goal to perform operations that extract information about the structure of objects, and to separate and discern various objects within the data. Measurements of the events, called features, can then be calculated and used for process or statistical analysis. Given a transformation of the pixel based image data into an explicit symbolic representation of the objects (i.e., the creation of objects of interest or Tokens), desired information can be extracted and characterized from the visual data. Simple segmentation schemes often lack the sophistication to deal with intricate or very subtle details of this image data. This paper discusses advanced techniques useful in obtaining information relevant to the recognition and extraction of objects of interest in laboratory vision automation applications.

This paper proposes a method of implementing stereovision in existing mobile robot perception systems without having to solve the classical stereo correspondence problem. The proposed method makes use of the fact that tracking of features is an easier task than performing stereo correspondence. A two-view motion stereo system is implemented in which the correspondence between two cameras is found by temporal stereo tracking. The algorithm assumes an initial stereo match of homologous features seen in the two cameras but subsequently the algorithm reliably tracks each feature by use of accurate odometric information, and accurate 3-D information can be derived from each matched feature. The derived set of 3-D data (of points, lines, and regions) are then fed to a fast surface reconstruction algorithm for later stage interpretation. The proposed scheme can be added to existing mobile robot road following systems at little added cost.

This paper describes recent work on hierarchical segmentation of range images. The algorithm starts with an initial partition of small planar regions using a robust fitting method constrained by the detection of depth and orientation discontinuities. From this initial partition represented by an adjacency graph structure, we optimally group these regions into larger and larger regions until an approximation limit is reached. The algorithm uses Bayesian decision theory to determine the local optimal grouping and the geometrical complexity of the approximation surface. This algorithm produces a hierarchical structure that can be used to represent objects with a varying level of detail by scanning through the hierarchical structure generated. Experimental results are presented.

Traffic flow measurement systems, which recognize vehicles and measure traffic parameters by image processing, are researched. We propose a new recognition method for moving vehicles using directional-temporal plane transform (DTT) for the system. DTT is a transformation from spatiotemporal data to 2-D data onto a directional-temporal plane. The transformation is done by projecting feature data of vehicles to a directional axis which is roughly parallel to the moving loci, and by placing the projected data stream side by side in temporal order. We also show an effective extraction algorithm of vehicles from the 2-D data obtained by DTT. Experimental results using real images demonstrate the effectiveness of this method.

A telerobotic system for power-line maintenance is equipped with a laser range-finder allowing it to perform an estimation of its workspace occupancy. This paper describes the model used for describing space occupancy and the 3-D computervision method developed for extracting this information. It consists in building an octree of the scene from several range images taken from various points of view. A calibration is performed using the first image in order to find the initial position of the camera relative to the scene. Successive 3-D images are used to complete the model information until a satisfying knowledge of the space occupancy is reached.

We consider analog neural network implementations (using VLSI or optical technologies) with limited accuracy and various noise and nonlinearity error sources. algorithms and techniques to achieve high performance (good recognition P'c% and large storage capacity) on such systems are considered. The adaptive clustering neural net (ACNN) and robust Ho-Kashyap (HK-2) associative processor (AP) are the neural networks considered in detail.
