Comparative analysis of different approaches to target classification and localization with sonar
(IEEE, 2001-08)The comparison of different classification and fusion techniques was done for target classification and localization with sonar. Target localization performance of artificial neural networks (ANN) was found to be better ... -
A comparison of two methods for fusing information from a linear array of sonar sensors for obstacle localization
(IEEE, 1995)The performance of a commonly employed linear array of sonar sensors is assessed for point-obstacle localization intended for robotics applications. Two different methods of combining time-of-flight information from the ... -
Evidential logical sensing using multiple sonars for the identification of target primitives in a mobile robot's environment
(IEEE, 1996)Physical models are used to model reflections from target primitives commonly encountered in mobile robot applications. These targets are differentiated by employing a multi-transducer pulse/echo system which relies on ... -
An experimental validation of an online adaptive cooperation scheme for spectrum sensing
(IEEE, 2011-05)Cooperative spectrum sensing methods in the literature assume a static communication scenario with fixed channel and propagation environment characteristics. In order to maintain the level of sensing reliability and ... -
Interactive training of advanced classifiers for mining remote sensing image archives
(ACM, 2004)Advances in satellite technology and availability of down-loaded images constantly increase the sizes of remote sensing image archives. Automatic content extraction, classification and content-based retrieval have become ... -
Land cover classification with multi-sensor fusion of partly missing data
(American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, 2009-05)We describe a system that uses decision tree-based tools for seamless acquisition of knowledge for classification of remotely sensed imagery. We concentrate on three important problems in this process: information fusion, ... -
Location and curvature estimation of "spherical" targets using a flexible sonar configuration
(IEEE, 1996)A novel, flexible, three-dimensional (3-D) multi-sensor sonar system is employed to localize the center of a spherical target and estimate its radius of curvature. The interesting limiting cases for the problem under study ... -
Map building with multiple range measurements using morphological surface profile extraction
(IEEE, Piscataway, NJ, United States, 1999)A novel method is described for surface profile extraction based on morphological processing of multiple range sensor data. The approach taken is extremely flexible and robust, in addition to being simple and straightforward. ... -
Morphological surface profile extraction from multiple sonars
(IEEE, 1998)This paper presents a novel method for surface profile determination using multiple sensors. Our approach is based on morphological processing techniques to fuse the range data from multiple sensor returns in a manner that ... -
Morphological surface profile extraction with multiple range sensors
(Elsevier, 2001)A novel method is described for surface pro"le extraction based on morphological processing of multiple range sensor data. The approach taken is extremely #exible and robust, in addition to being simple and straightforward. ... -
Neural network-based target differentiation using sonar for robotics applications
(IEEE, 2000-08)This study investigates the processing of sonar signals using neural networks for robust differentiation of commonly encountered features in indoor robot environments. The neural network can differentiate more targets with ... -
Radius of curvature estimation and localization of targets using multiple sonar sensors
(A I P Publishing LLC, 1999-04)Acoustic sensors have been widely used in time-of-flight ranging systems since they are inexpensive and convenient to use. One of the most important limitations of these sensors is their low angular resolution. To improve ... -
Target identification with multiple logical sonars using evidential reasoning and simple majority voting
(IEEE, 1997)In this study, physical models are used to model reflections from target primitives commonly encountered in a mobile robot's environment. These targets are differentiated by employing a multi-transducer pulse/echo system ... -
Voting as validation in robot programming
(Sage Publications Ltd., 1999-04)This paper investigates the use of voting as a conflict-resolution technique for data analysis in robot programming. Voting represents an information-abstraction technique. It is argued that in some cases a voting approach ...
