    摘要: The prevention of vehicle accidents is targeted. A road texture model is created based on a vehicle camera image. An initial vehicle location estimate is determined, and map imagery is obtained based on this location estimate. A refined vehicle location is determined using visual egomotion. In particular, 3D features of the vehicle image and the retrieved map imagery are identified and aligned. A map image is selected based on this alignment, and the location associated with the map image is modified by a displacement between the selected map image and the vehicle image to produce a refined vehicle location. A road boundary model is created based on the road texture model and the refined vehicle location, and a road departure model is created based on the road boundary model and vehicle odometry information. The operator of the vehicle is warned of a road departure based on the road departure model.

    摘要: A system and method are disclosed for online mapping of large-scale environments using a hybrid representation of a metric Euclidean environment map and a topological map. The system includes a scene module, a location recognition module, a local adjustment module and a global adjustment module. The scene flow module is for detecting and tracking video features of the frames of an input video sequence. The scene flow module is also configured to identify multiple keyframes of the input video sequence and add the identified keyframes into an initial environment map of the input video sequence. The location recognition module is for detecting loop closures in the environment map. The local adjustment module enforces local metric properties of the keyframes in the environment map, and the global adjustment module is for optimizing the entire environment map subject to global metric properties of the keyframes in the keyframe pose graph.

    摘要: Provided is a method of processing images. The method may include obtaining a plurality of radially-distorted images captured from one location in different directions, the plurality of images each having a field of view, and neighboring images among the plurality of images having overlapping fields of view. The method may further include reducing relative distortion of portions of the neighboring images in the overlapping fields of view of the neighboring images, matching features between the reduced distortion portions of neighboring images in the overlapping fields of view, and storing in memory data indicative of matched features.

The projection pattern generation module is configured to generate the optimized projection pattern form the non-recurring De Bruijn sequence. The system further comprises a projector to project the non-recurring De Bruijn sequence to a plurality of images and a depth reconstruction module to reconstruct depth images from the plurality of the images.

    摘要: A system (and a method) are disclosed for recognizing and representing activities in a video sequence. The system includes an activity dynamic Bayesian network (ADBN), an object/action dictionary, an activity inference engine and a state output unit. The activity dynamic Bayesian network encodes the prior information of a selected activity domain. The prior information of the selected activity domain describes the ordering, temporal constraints and contextual cues among the expected actions. The object/action dictionary detects activities in each frame of the input video stream, represents the activities hierarchically, and generates an estimated observation probability for each detected action. The activity inference engine estimates a likely activity state for each frame based on the evidence provided by the object/action dictionary and the ADBN. The state output unit outputs the likely activity state generated by the activity inference engine.
