    摘要: A pose of an object is estimated from an from an input image and an object pose estimation is then stored by: inputting an image containing an object; creating a binary mask of the input image; extracting a set of singlets from the binary mask of the input image, each singlet representing points in an inner and outer contour of the object in the input image; connecting the set of singlets into a mesh represented as a duplex matrix; comparing two duplex matrices to produce a set of candidate poses; and producing an object pose estimate, and storing the object pose estimate. The estimated pose of the object is refined by: inputting an image of an object in an estimated pose, a model of the object, and parameters of a camera used to take the image of the object in the estimated pose; projecting the model of the object into a virtual image of the object using the parameters of the camera and initial pose parameters to obtain a binary mask image and image depth information; and updating the initial pose parameters to new pose parameters using the binary mask image and image depth information and updating the new pose parameters iteratively to minimize an energy function or until a maximum number of iterations is reached.

    摘要: An off page condition or invalid sensors position data is detected by checking the errors from an initial transformation parameter estimation. If an abnormally large error is encountered, a sensor's reading (position data) may be invalid or the sensor was off page. Then the invalid sensor data will be identified and removed. Finally the transformation parameters will be re-estimated using valid sensor position data only. A weighted least-square minimization is used by considering the sensor lift situation. If a sensor is lifted, the weight for the error related to the sensor will be set to a small weight or zero. Also considered are the geometric properties of sensor locations in weighting the sensor error. A confidence measurement of the sensor data and associated error is performed. The confidence measurement is derived from an error ellipse at 95% confidence level.

    摘要: This invention relates to a composition comprising nano-structured metal oxide particles (particularly, zirconia) and at least one stabilizing agent, a method to produce the composition, and a method to produce the thermally stable nano-structured particles. The method to produce the nano-structured particles comprises first preparing a base solution and a nanoparticle precursor solution, then combining these solutions at a final pH 7 or greater to precipitate a colloidal hydrous oxide. The colloidal hydrous oxide is then treated with at least one silicate, phosphate, or aluminum phosphate stabilizing agent and dried. These nano-structured particle products have high thermal stability and are particularly advantageous in applications as catalysts or catalyst supports that operate at high temperatures.
