摘要:
An obstacle recognition apparatus is provided which can recognize an obstacle by accurately extracting a floor surface. It includes a distance image generator (222) to produce a distance image using a disparity image and homogeneous transform matrix, a plane detector (223) to detect plane parameters on the basis of the distance image from the distance image generator (222), a coordinate transformer (224) to transform the homogeneous transform matrix into a coordinate of a ground-contact plane of a robot apparatus (1), and a floor surface detector (225) to detect a floor surface using the plane parameters from the plane detector (223) and result of coordinate transformation from the coordinate transformer (224) and supply the plane parameters to an obstacle recognition block (226). The obstacle recognition block (226) selects one of points on the floor surface using the plane parameters of the floor surface detected by the floor surface detector (225) and recognizes an obstacle on the basis of the selected point.

摘要:
Sentences corresponding to internal statuses of a robot device or the like are created and uttered, thereby expressing the internal statuses. The robot device or the like comprise means for recognizing an external status, and means for generating an emotion based on the internals status, whereby a change in the emotion is reflected upon a dialogue. The internal status is not associated with a sentence, but it exists independently of the system and is always varied depending on various external inputs and internal changes of the system. Accordingly, even when the same question is made on the robot device or the like, the contents of a reply are changed depending on the internal status at that time, and a manner of providing a reply also differs depending on the internal status.

A robot system includes a speech recognition unit for converting speech information into text information, and a database retrieval unit for extracting a keyword included in the text information from a database. By designating a plurality of basic actions on a speech basis, and storing an action record, a combined action formed by combining the plurality of basic actions in time-series order can be named as a new action only in voice-based interaction. A user can designate complicated continuous actions by using only one word, and can easily have a conversation with the robot.

A face image processing apparatus selects feature points and feature for identifying a person through statistical learning. The apparatus includes input means for inputting a face image detected by arbitrary face detection means, face parts detection means for detecting the positions of face parts in several locations from the input face image, face pose estimation means for estimating face pose based on the detected positions of face parts, feature point position correcting means for correcting the position of each feature point used for identifying the person based on the result of estimation of face pose by the face pose estimation means, and face identifying means for identifying the person by calculating a feature of the input face image at each feature point after position correction is performed by the feature point position correcting means and checking the feature against a feature of a registered face.

An information processing apparatus includes the following elements. A learning unit is configured to perform Adaptive Boosting Error Correcting Output Coding learning using image feature values of a plurality of sample images each being assigned a class label to generate a multi-class classifier configured to output a multi-dimensional score vector corresponding to an input image. A registration unit is configured to input a register image to the multi-class classifier, and to register a multi-dimensional score vector corresponding to the input register image in association with identification information about the register image. A determination unit is configured to input an identification image to be identified to the multi-class classifier, and to determine a similarity between a multi-dimensional score vector corresponding to the input identification image and the registered multi-dimensional score vector corresponding to the register image.
