Conference 2013 International Conference on Connected Vehicles and Expo, ICCVE 2013 - Proceedings · January 1, 2013 We present a novel tracking algorithm for an autonomous vehicle equipped with a single camera. Given only monocular visual data, our algorithm utilizes projective geometry to compute concise features of the environment. Using these features, road markings ... Full text Cite

Rapid position estimation and tracking for autonomous driving

Conference Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering · January 1, 2012 A method is presented for determining the position and orientation of a vehicle from a single, color video taken from the hood of the vehicle, for the purpose of assisting its autonomous operation at very high speeds on rural roads. An implicit perspective ... Full text Cite

Exploiting spectral content for image segmentation in GPR data

Conference Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering · July 13, 2011 Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) sensors provide an effective means for detecting changes in the sub-surface electrical properties of soils, such as changes indicative of landmines or other buried threats. However, most GPR-based pre-screening algorithms onl ... Full text Cite

Viewpoint Adaptation for Person Detection

Other An object detector performs suboptimally when applied to image data taken from a viewpoint different from the one with which it was trained. In this paper, we present a viewpoint adaptation algo- rithm that allows a trained single-view person detector to b ... Full text Open Access Link to item Cite
