Fused with dramatic advances in artificial intelligence, the capability to extract patterns and meaning from those data streams heralds an era of insights into the physical world. In order to draw appropriate inferences about and between environments, the systematic selection of these data is necessary to create representative and unbiased samples. To this end, we introduce the Systematic Street View Sampler (S3) framework, enabling researchers to produce their own user-defined datasets of Street View imagery. We describe the algorithm and express its asymptotic complexity in relation to a new limiting computational resource (Google API Call Count). Using the Amazon Mechanical Turk distributed annotation environment, we demonstrate the utility of S3 in generating high quality representative datasets useful for machine vision applications. The S3 algorithm is open-source and available at github.com/CU-BIC/S3 along with the high quality dataset representing power infrastructure in rural regions of southern Ontario, Canada.","PeriodicalId":281779,"journal":{"name":"2018 15th Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125521934","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditionally, the system uses a stereo camera as the primary sensor for triangulating visual landmarks and often operates in highly textured outdoor environments. In this paper, we modify the VT&R system to use a monocular pipeline under the same framework, but also target indoor operation as a demonstration of a low-cost VT&R solution for warehouse logistics in a visually difficult environment. Unlike previous monocular VT&R solutions, we make no assumptions about the nature of the scene (e.g., local ground planarity). This allows the system to be readily deployable on more vehicles in a wider range of environments. To test the system, and motivated by a warehouse navigation application, an upward pointing camera is mounted on a Clearpath Husky ground vehicle. We demonstrate the vehicle is able to navigate with a 99.6% autonomy rate using such a system during 1.1 kilometers of driving, with an average scene depth that varies from 8-16 meters. The cross-track deviation from the taught path is less than 0.5 meters over 90% of the path, reaching a maximum of 0.85 meters and an average of 0.26 meters.","PeriodicalId":281779,"journal":{"name":"2018 15th Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV)","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134140536","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

State-of-the-art methods that have shown impressive results on recognition tasks typically share a common structure involving stage-wise encoding of the image, followed by a generic classifier. However, these architectures have been shown to be vulnerable to the adversarial perturbations which may undermine the security of the systems supported by deep neural nets. In this work, initially we present rigorous evaluation of adversarial attacks on recent deep learning models for two different high-level tasks (image classification and semantic segmentation). Then we propose a model and dataset independent approach to generate adversarial perturbation and also the transferability of perturbation across different datasets and tasks. Moreover, we analyze the effect of different network architectures which will aid future efforts in understanding and defending against adversarial perturbations. We perform comprehensive experiments on several standard image classification and segmentation datasets to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed approach.","PeriodicalId":281779,"journal":{"name":"2018 15th Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131898478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The literature is abundant with deep learning networks that detect either lights or signs, not both, which makes them unsuitable for real-life deployment due to the limited graphics processing unit (GPU) memory and power available on embedded systems. The root cause of this issue is that no public dataset contains both traffic light and sign labels, which leads to difficulties in developing a joint detection framework. We present a deep hierarchical architecture in conjunction with a mini-batch proposal selection mechanism that allows a network to detect both traffic lights and signs from training on separate traffic light and sign datasets. Our method solves the overlapping issue where instances from one dataset are not labelled in the other dataset. We are the first to present a network that performs joint detection on traffic lights and signs. We measure our network on the Tsinghua-Tencent 100K benchmark for traffic sign detection and the Bosch Small Traffic Lights benchmark for traffic light detection and show it outperforms the existing Bosch Small Traffic light state-of-the-art method. We focus on autonomous car deployment and show our network is more suitable than others because of its low memory footprint and real-time image processing time.

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first paper to do such counting on-the-fly and autonomously. The flight path is programmed before take-off. The UAV captures images of the ground which are processed consecutively on-the-fly to count the number of targets along the flight path. Each image is processed using the proposed target-counting algorithm. First, targets' centers are detected in the current image, and second, the targets that were not covered in previous images are identified and counted. The performance of the algorithm depends on its ability to identify in the current image what targets were already counted in previous images, and this ability is affected by the limited accuracy of the UAV to stay on the flight path in the presence of wind. In the experimental evaluation, targets were distributed on ground on three different configurations: one line of targets along the flight path, parallel lines of targets at an angle with the flight path, and random. The accuracy of the target count was 96.0%, 88.9% and 91.9% respectively.","PeriodicalId":281779,"journal":{"name":"2018 15th Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV)","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128315828","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Falling rain and snow tends to corrupt sensor measurements, particularly for lidar sensors. Surprisingly, very little research has been published on methods to de-noise point clouds which are collected by lidar in rainy or snowy weather conditions. In this paper, we present a method for removing snow noise by processing point clouds using a 3D outlier detection algorithm. Our method, the dynamic radius outlier removal filter, accounts for the variation in point cloud density with increasing distance from the sensor, with the goal of removing the noise caused by snow while retaining detail in environmental features (which is necessary for autonomous localization and navigation). The proposed method outperforms other noise-removal methods, including methods which operate on depth image representations of the lidar scans. We show on point clouds obtained while driving in falling snow that we can simultaneously obtain > 90% precision and recall, indicating that the proposed method is effective at removing snow, without removing environmental features.","PeriodicalId":281779,"journal":{"name":"2018 15th Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV)","volume":"310 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116758554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We focus on two quality factors: i) stability of the visual features, and ii) consistency of the visual features with respect to robot motion and the associated correspondence between frames. We assume that local texture measures are associated with underlying scene content and thus with the quality of the visual features for the associated region of the scene. Based on this assumption, we train a machine-learning system to score different regions of an image based on their texture and then guide the robot's gaze toward high scoring image regions. Our work is targeted towards motion estimation and SLAM for small, lightweight, and autonomous air vehicles where computational resources are constrained in weight, size, and power. However, we believe that our work is also applicable to other types of robotic systems. Our experimental validation consists of simulations, constrained tests, and outdoor flight experiments on an unmanned aerial vehicle. We find that modulating gaze direction can improve localization accuracy by up to 62 percent.","PeriodicalId":281779,"journal":{"name":"2018 15th Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122976278","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
