This thesis is about topological navigation, more precisely about space representation, perception, localization and mapping. All these elements are needed in order to obtain a robust and reliable framework for navigation. This is essential in order to mov ...
This paper starts with a discussion of the open challenges in the SLAM problem. In our opinion they can be grouped in two main and distinct areas: convergence of the built map and computation requirement for real world application. To deal with the previou ...
Polyhedral operations play a central role in constrained control. One of the most fundamental operations is that of projection, required both by addition and multiplication. This thesis investigates projection and its relation to multi-parametric linear op ...
A serious effort has been made in developing accurate and efficient bidirectional goniophotometric devices for detailed studies of Complex Fenestration Systems, capable of measuring BTDFs and/or BRDFs in an appropriate way. The existing instruments are alm ...
In this paper, we present the development and the implementation of algorithms to access map databases by a user equipped with a pedestrian navigation system. ...
A vital task in sports video annotation is to detect and segment areas of the playfield. This is an important first step in player or ball tracking and detecting the location of the play on the playfield. In this paper we present a technique using statisti ...
Embedded systems are evolving from traditional, stand-alone devices to devices that participate in Internet activity. The days of simple, manifest embedded software [e.g. a simple finite-impulse response (FIR) algorithm on a digital signal processor DSP)] ...
The invention relates to an adjustable pinhole, especially for the illumination beam path and/or detection beam path of a laser scanning microscope. Said pinhole consists of at least two planar basic components comprising articulation points in the form of ...
