Automatically discovering common visual patterns from a collection of images is an interesting but yet challenging task, in part because it is computationally prohibiting. Althoug...
A fundamental task in computer vision is that of determining the position and orientation of a moving camera relative to an observed object or scene. Many such visual tracking alg...
Abstract— Vision systems are used more and more in ’personal’ robots interacting with humans, since semantic information about objects and places can be derived from the rich...

— In our recent work [1], [2], we proposed Point Feature Histograms (PFH) as robust multi-dimensional features which describe the local geometry around a point p for 3D point clo...
— When using appearance-based recognition for self-localization of mobile robots, the images obtained during the exploration of the environment need to be efficiently stored in t...
