Classifying Materials from Their Reflectance Properties
We explore the possibility of recognizing the surface material from a single image with unknown illumination, given the shape of the surface. Model-based PCA is used to create a lo...

A Process-Centric Ontological Approach for Integrating Geo-Sensor Data
We introduce a process-centric ontological approach to relate observed properties to geo-processes that influence those observations. These relations are used to handle semantic he...

A System for Semi-Automatic Modeling of Complex Environments
We present a perception system, called Artisan, that semi-automatically builds 3-D models of a robot’s workspace. Range images are acquired with a scanning laser rangefinder an...
