Visual attention in deep learning for detection and classification

Visual attention refers to the mechanism of dynamically and selectively focusing on a subset of the visual input stimuli for detailed analysis, which is part of the visual perception process of the early primate vision. It has been successfully integrated into the design and implementation of many artificial visual recognition systems with applications to image […]

Active Vision in Robotics for Optimal Mobile Camera Sensor Planning

Active vision or perception is one that can manipulate the viewpoint of the cameras in order to investigate the environment, and get better information from it. It mostly encourages the idea of moving a visual sensor to constrain interpretation of its environment. This research in active vision is concerned with determining the 3D pose and […]

3D object detection and pose estimation using RGBD cameras

3D object detection and pose estimation (ODPE) is an important area in computer vision, which has many real world applications such as robotics and augmented reality. Estimating an accurate pose from RGB cameras alone is challenging. Given the increased popularity of RGBD sensors, such as Microsoft Kinect, we propose a hybrid method for ODPE based […]
