The extensive use of smartphones and wearable devices has facilitated many useful applications. For example, with Global Positioning System (GPS)-equipped smart and wearable devices, many applications can gather, process, and share rich…
Ecological and conservation studies monitoring bird communities typically rely on species classification based on bird vocalizations. Historically, this has been based on expert volunteers going into the field and making lists of the bird…
Mobile object tracking has an important role in the computer vision applications. In this paper, we use a tracked target-based taxonomy to present the object tracking algorithms. The tracked targets are divided into three categories: points…
Recently, the development of mobile edge computing has enabled exhilarating edge artificial intelligence (AI) with fast response and low communication cost. The location information of edge devices is essential to support the edge AI in…
Coordinating proximity and tactile imaging by collocating cameras with tactile sensors can 1) provide useful information before contact such as object pose estimates and visually servo a robot to a target with reduced occlusion and higher…
This paper proposes a novel method for randomized bin-picking based on learning. When a two-fingered gripper tries to pick an object from the pile, a finger often contacts a neighboring object. Even if a finger contacts a neighboring…
Generating a bird's eye view of road users is beneficial for a variety of applications, including navigation, detecting agent conflicts, and measuring space occupancy, as well as the ability to utilise the metric system to measure distances…
The ability to capture detailed interactions among individuals in a social group is foundational to our study of animal behavior and neuroscience. Recent advances in deep learning and computer vision are driving rapid progress in methods…
Bug fixing is a complex and time-consuming task in software development. Bug localization research tends to focus on the accuracy of automated tools that suggest source code files for developers to look at. However, little is known about…
By entering the habitats of wild animals, wildlife watchers can engage closely with them. There are some wild animals that are not always safe to approach. Therefore, we suggest this system for observing wildlife. Android phones can be used…
We demonstrate how language can improve geolocation: the task of predicting the location where an image was taken. Here we study explicit knowledge from human-written guidebooks that describe the salient and class-discriminative visual…
Uniform and variable environments still remain a challenge for stable visual localization and mapping in mobile robot navigation. One of the possible approaches suitable for such environments is appearance-based teach-and-repeat navigation,…
Visual localization determines an agent's precise position and orientation within an environment using visual data. It has become a critical task in the field of robotics, particularly in applications such as autonomous navigation. This is…
Localization in the environment is an essential navigational capability for animals and mobile robots. In the indoor environment, the global localization problem remains challenging to be perfectly solved with probabilistic methods.…
In this work, we argue that current state-of-the-art methods of aircraft localization such as multilateration are insufficient, in particular for modern crowdsourced air traffic networks with random, unplanned deployment geometry. We…
Camera traps are a valuable tool for studying biodiversity, but research using this data is limited by the speed of human annotation. With the vast amounts of data now available it is imperative that we develop automatic solutions for…
There are around a hundred installed apps on an average smartphone. The high number of apps and the limited number of app icons that can be displayed on the device's screen requires a new paradigm to address their visibility to the user. In…
The aim of this thesis was the design and development of an interactive system enhancing collaborative sensemaking. The system design was based on related work research and preliminary user study. The system is based on multiple…
Consider a multiplayer game, and assume a system level objective function, which the system wants to optimize, is given. This paper aims at accomplishing this goal via potential game theory when players can only get part of other players'…
The most profound technologies are those that disappear. They weave themselves into fabrics of everyday life until they are indistinguishable from it [1]. This research work is a mere effort for automated decision making during sports of…
