Regular inspection and monitoring of buildings and infrastructure, that is collectively called
the built environment in this paper, is critical. The built environment includes commercial and …

Camera localization involves the estimation of the camera pose of an image from a random
scene. We used a single image or sequence of images or videos as the input. The output …

Abstract The use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for bridge inspection has gained
popularity recently; however, accurately localising the UAV in GPS-denied areas is still …

Conventional sensor-based localization relies on high-precision maps, which are generally
built using specialized mapping techniques involving high labor and computational costs. In …

Automated construction quality assessments often face challenges due to noise and
occlusions in on-site data when independently comparing elements in as-designed building …

As a cutting-edge tracking algorithm for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), discriminative
correlation filter (DCF)-based trackers have evolved by embracing diverse feature extraction …

On-site assembly of prefabricated components is crucial for the construction efficiency and
quality of prefabricated buildings. In this process, a prefabricated component is first lifted and …

Visual simultaneous localization and mapping (VSLAM) is an appropriate method for
positioning and navigation of intelligent unmanned systems under Global Navigation …

Conventional mobile robots employ LIDAR for indoor global positioning and navigation, thus
having strict requirements for the ground environment. Under the complicated ground …

Semi-structured greenhouse environment often features repetitive and weak texture,
naturally bringing challenges to high-precision vision-based positioning techniques. This …
