This work studies a robot-assisted crowd evacuation problem where we control a small group of robots to guide a large human crowd to safe locations. The challenge lies in how to model human-robot interactions and design robot controls to…

In this paper, we explore a strong baseline for crowd counting and an unsupervised people localization algorithm based on estimated density maps. Firstly, existing methods achieve state-of-the-art performance based on different backbones…

Compared with the generic scenes, crowded scenes contain highly-overlapped instances, which result in: 1) more ambiguous anchors during training of object detectors, and 2) more predictions are likely to be mistakenly suppressed in…

Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) and Multi-Object Tracking (MOT) are pivotal tasks in the realm of autonomous driving, attracting considerable research attention. While SLAM endeavors to generate real-time maps and determine the…

In this letter, we present a novel markerless 3D human motion capture (MoCap) system for unstructured, outdoor environments that uses a team of autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with on-board RGB cameras and computation. Existing…

We present MVTOP, a novel transformer-based method for multi-view rigid object pose estimation. Through an early fusion of the view-specific features, our method can resolve pose ambiguities that would be impossible to solve with a single…

Most existing crowd counting methods require object location-level annotation, i.e., placing a dot at the center of an object. While being simpler than the bounding-box or pixel-level annotation, obtaining this annotation is still…

Robots often use feature-based image tracking to identify their position in their surrounding environment; however, feature-based image tracking is prone to errors in low-textured and poorly lit environments. Specifically, we investigate a…

With the massive data challenges nowadays and the rapid growing of technology, stream mining has recently received considerable attention. To address the large number of scenarios in which this phenomenon manifests itself suitable tools are…

In dynamic and crowded environments, realistic pedestrian trajectory prediction remains a challenging task due to the complex nature of human motion and the mutual influences among individuals. Deep learning models have recently achieved…

Crowd counting is usually handled in a density map regression fashion, which is supervised via a L2 loss between the predicted density map and ground truth. To effectively regulate models, various improved L2 loss functions have been…

With robots increasingly integrating into human environments, understanding and predicting human motion is essential for safe and efficient interactions. Modern human motion and activity prediction approaches require high quality and…

3D panoramic multi-person localization and tracking are prominent in many applications, however, conventional methods using LiDAR equipment could be economically expensive and also computationally inefficient due to the processing of point…

In recent years, innovative roadside parking vacancy crowdsensing solutions have emerged as a cost-effective alternative to traditional methods, which can significantly reduce sensor installation and maintenance expenses. This crowdsensing…

Predicting individual mobility patterns is crucial across various applications. While current methods mainly focus on predicting the next location for personalized services like recommendations, they often fall short in supporting broader…

Current state-of-the-art crowd navigation approaches are mainly deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based. However, DRL-based methods suffer from the issues of generalization and scalability. To overcome these challenges, we propose a method…

We propose a novel semiparametric classifier based on Mahalanobis distances of an observation from the competing classes. Our tool is a generalized additive model with the logistic link function that uses these distances as features to…

Accurately locating each head's position in the crowd scenes is a crucial task in the field of crowd analysis. However, traditional density-based methods only predict coarse prediction, and segmentation/detection-based methods cannot handle…

This paper presents a novel dense optical-flow algorithm to solve the monocular simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) problem for ground or aerial robots. Dense optical flow can effectively provide the ego-motion of the vehicle while…

Crowd counting and localization are important in applications such as public security and traffic management. Existing methods have achieved impressive results thanks to extensive laborious annotations. This paper propose a novel…
