BOOKTITLE = {CVWW 2005},

ADDRESS = {Zell an der Pram, Austria},
MONTH = {February},
NOTE = {Submitted},
ABSTRACT = {This paper presents a computational model which implements a hierarchy
of cognitive maps based on panoramic images of the environment. The
resulting map consists of place cells placed in a topologically consistent
metric space. The formation of the cognitive map is achieved by passing
subspace representations of panoramic images to a computational model
inspired by Hafner. A physical force model is applied to translate
the non-metric map to a sparse topological map with metric information
using local relative orientations only. Finally, a hierarchy of maps
is formed in order to implement different levels of representations.},

ABSTRACT = {We propose a method for visual robot localization using a panoramic
image volume as the representation from which we can generate views
from virtual viewpoints and match them to the current view. We use
a geometric image-based rendering formalism in combination with a
subspace representation of images, which allows us to synthesize
views at arbitrary virtual viewpoints from a compact low-dimensional
representation.},

TITLE = {Combining Reconstructive and Discriminative Subspace Methods for
Robust Classification and Regression by Subsampling},
JOURNAL = {IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence},
YEAR = {2005},
VOLUME = {28},
PAGES = {337-350},
NUMBER = {3},
ABSTRACT = {Linear subspace methods that provide sufficient reconstruction of
the data such as PCA offer an efficient way of dealing with missing
pixels, outliers, and occlusions that often appear in the visual
data. Discriminative methods, such as LDA and CCA, which on the other
hand, are better suited for classification and regression tasks,
are highly sensitive to corrupted data. We present a theoretical
framework for achieving best of both types of methods: an approach
that combines the discrimination power of discriminative methods
with the reconstruction property of reconstructive methods which
enables one to work on subsets of pixels in images, to efficiently
detect and reject the outliers. The proposed approach is therefore
capable of robust classification/regression with a high-breakdown
point. The theoretical results are demonstrated on several computer
vision tasks showing that the proposed approach significantly outperforms
the standard discriminative methods in the case of missing pixels
and images containing occlusions and outliers.},

TITLE = {Integrating Representative and Discriminant Models for Object Category
Detection},
BOOKTITLE = {Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Computer Vision,
Bejing, China},
YEAR = {2005},
ABSTRACT = {Category detection is a lively area of research. While categorization
algorithms tend to agree in using local descriptors, they differ
in the choice of the classifier, with some using generative models
and others discriminative approaches. This paper presents a method
for object category detection which integrates a generative model
with a discriminative classifier. For each object category, we generate
an appearance codebook, which becomes a common vocabulary for the
generative and discriminative methods. Given a query image, the generative
part of the algorithm finds a set of hypotheses and estimates their
support in location and scale. Then, the discriminative part verifies
each hypothesis on the same codebook activations. The new algorithm
exploits the strengths of both original methods, minimizing their
weaknesses. Experiments on several databases show that our new approach
performs better than its building blocks taken separately. Moreover,
experiments on two challenging multi-scale databases show that our
new algorithm outperforms previously reported results.},

BOOKTITLE = {Proceedings of the Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition,
San Diego, California, USA},
YEAR = {2005},
PAGES = {878--885},
MONTH = {June},
ABSTRACT = {In this paper, we address the problem of detecting pedestrians in
crowded real-world scenes with severe overlaps. Our basic premise
is that this problem is too difficult for any type of model or feature
alone. Instead, we present a novel algorithm that integrates evidence
in multiple iterations and from different sources. The core part
of our method is the combination of local and global cues via a probabilistic
top-down segmentation. Altogether, this approach allows to examine
and compare object hypotheses with high precision down to the pixel
level. Qualitative and quantitative results on a large data set confirm
that our method is able to reliably detect pedestrians in crowded
scenes, even when they overlap and partially occlude each other.
In addition, the flexible nature of our approach allows it to operate
on very small training sets.},

information about the type of place improves the capabilities of
a mobile robot in various domains including localization, path-planning,

based on laser range data. In this paper we describe how this approach
can be applied to distinguish between rooms, corridors, doorways,

real robots demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in various
environments.},

BOOKTITLE = {Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Computer Vision,

YEAR = {2005},
VOLUME = {2},
PAGES = {1792--1799},
ABSTRACT = {In this paper we compare the performance of local detectors and descriptors
in the context of object class recognition. Recently, many detectors/descriptors
have been evaluated in the context of matching as well as invariance
to viewpoint changes. However, it is unclear if these results can
be generalized to categorization problems, which require different
properties of features. We evaluate 5 state-of-the-art scale invariant
region detectors and 5 descriptors. Local features are computed for
20 object classes and clustered using hierarchical agglomerative
clustering. We measure the quality of appearance clusters and location
distributions using entropy as well as precision. We also measure
how the clusters generalize from training set to novel test data.
Our results indicate that extended SIFT descriptors computed on Hessian-Laplace
regions perform best. Second score is obtained by Salient regions.
The results also show that these two detectors provide complementary
features. The new detectors/descriptors significantly improve the
performance of a state-of-the art recognition approach in pedestrian
detection task.},

ABSTRACT = {We present a novel approach for view-based learning and recognition
of motion patterns of articulated objects. We formulate the intervals
of motion as a predictive model of local spatio-temporal receptive
field activation. We compute local velocity distribution using a
Bayesian approach, and then approximate the local velocity distribution
in space and time using a set of Gaussian receptive fields. The activation
sequence of receptive fields over time is modeled in a PCA subspace
using linear auto-regression to arrive at a model of the motion pattern.
Recognition is performed using the MDL principle. We test the approach
on a number of human motion patterns to demonstrate the applicability
of the proposed approach to simple action recognition and identification.},

ABSTRACT = {We present a novel framework for unsupervised training of an object

of unlabeled video data by being very conservative in selecting training
examples; and (2) to start with a very simple object detection system
and using generative and discriminative classifiers in an iterative
co- training fashion arriving at a better object detector. We demonstrate
the framework on a surveillance task where we learn a person detector.
We start with a simple moving object classiffier and proceed with
a robust PCA (on shape and appearance) as a generative classiffier
which in turn generates a training set for a discriminative AdaBoost
classiffier. The results obtained by AdaBoost are again filtered
by PCA which produces an even better training set. We demonstrate
that by using this approach we avoid hand labeling training data
and still achieve a state of the art detection rate.},

reinforcement learning. All of those support types of self-organising,
self-modifying behaviours. But we are nowhere near understanding
the full variety of powerful information-processing principles 'discovered'
by evolution. By attending closely to the diversity of biological
phenomena we may gain key insights into (a) how evolution happens,
(b) what sorts of mechanisms, forms of representation, types of learning
and development and types of architectures have evolved, (c) how
to explain ill-understood aspects of human and animal intelligence,

TITLE = {Planning clarification questions to resolve ambiguous references

BOOKTITLE = {Proceedings of the 4th Workshop on Knowledge and Reasoning in Practical
Dialogue Systems, held at IJCAI 05},
YEAR = {2005},
ABSTRACT = {Our aim is to design robots that can have task directed conversations
with humans about objects in a table top scene. One of the pre-requisites
is that the robot is able to correctly identify the object to which
another speaker refers. This is not trivial as human references to
objects are often ambiguous, and rely on contextual information from
the scene, the task, or the dialogue to resolve the reference. This
paper describes work in progress on building a robot system able
to plan the content of clarifying questions that when answered provide
the robot with enough information to resolve ambiguous references.
It describes an algorithm that models the degree of uncertainty about
the binding of a referent using a probability distribution. We use
the visual salience of the object as a way to generate the prior
distribution over candidate objects, which we call the belief state.
Then we generate action models, for the effects of various clarifying
questions, on the fly. Finally we evaluate the mean reduction in
the entropy of the resulting belief states. The method can be seen
as a form of prior-posterior analysis, or as one step look ahead
in an information state Markov decision process. We are currently
implementing the algorithm in a robot and discuss the issues we have
encountered to date.},
