- Robot companions need to be able to constantly acquire knowledge about new objects for instance in order to detect them in the environment. This ability is necessary since it is ...
We describe how to model the appearance of a 3-D object using multiple views, learn such a model from training images, and use the model for object recognition. The model uses pro...
Abstract. This paper concerns the exploration of a natural environment by a mobile robot equipped with both a video camera and a range sensor (stereo or laser range finder); we fo...
