A description approach of information in a robotics-vision system

Abstract

Discusses the intention to provide robots with a computer system which gives them the capability to build an abstract and condensed description of their environment from low level data provided by an artificial vision system. This intention rapidly faced a complexity barrier: on one hand, the importance of the volume of information conveyed by an image they manipulate; on the other hand, the access to pertinent information to validate decision making. To reach this goal, research is oriented towards extracting a set of computing tools learning in two ways: descriptive process of the objects to manipulate, and constructive process of the pertinent information for each operation to apply to an object.
