The paper describes experience with applying a user-centric design methodology in
developing systems for human-robot teaming in Urban Search and Rescue. A human-robot …

The paper describes ongoing integrated research on designing intelligent robots that can
assist humans in making a situation assessment during Urban Search & Rescue (USAR) …

This paper shows that the successively evaluated features used in a sliding window
detection process to decide about object presence/absence also contain knowledge about …

Several applications require information about street furniture. Part of the task is to survey all
traffic signs. This has to be done for millions of km of road, and the exercise needs to be …

The thesis is focused on fast visual object tracking and detection methods. We use the linear
regression to learn a predictor, which forms a mapping from the image data directly to the …

Learning models from visual exemplars proved to be a very successful strategy in computer
vision. Results of methods which learn from images clearly outperform results achieved by …

The paper describes implementation of a simple yet very efficient filtering step for object
detection. The filter is implemented in ROS middle-ware and applied on a mobile robot …
