Visual Landmarks Detection and Recognition for Mobile Robot Navigation

This article describes visual functions dedicated to the extraction and recognition of planar quadrangles detected from a single camera. Extraction is based on a relaxation scheme with constraints between image segments, while the characterization we propose allows recognition to be achieved from different viewpoints and viewing conditions. We defined and evaluated several metrics on this representation space : a correlation-based one and another one based on sets of interest points.
