Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the potential of space variant sensors in machine and robotic vision, inspired by the strongly space variant nature of the human visual system. The author, an expert in computational neuroscience, utilizes a complex logarithmic mapping function to accurately model the human visual representation and provides realistic estimates of the nature of such a unique imaging system. The author delves into three primary algorithms related to the blending of a single scene from multiple frames: fusing space variant contour-based scenes with different fixation points into a single multi-scan view; an attentional algorithm that recursively examines the current knowledge of the scene to optimally choose the next fixation point based on focusing attention in regions of maximum boundary curvature; and a simple metric for evaluating convergence over scan path. Through detailed analysis and illustrative examples, this book sheds light on essential concepts such as image data compression, visual attention, and convergence, highlighting the potential of space variant imaging systems in both machine and biological vision.

In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a mathematical analysis of positive grips, a non-frictional gripping method for articulated multi-fingered hands, and investigates the number of fingers needed to grip objects in two or three-dimensional space. The author demonstrates that most objects can be gripped with a bounded number of fingers and characterizes the surfaces that cannot. Algorithms are presented for synthesizing positive grips for polyhedral objects and polygons. The author also explores the implications of static friction and external forces on grip stability, providing theoretical insights into the design and control of dexterous robotic hands. This book contributes to the understanding of positive grips and their applications in robotics and manipulation, offering valuable insights for researchers and practitioners in these fields.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a timely exploration into a mechanical engineering approach to an optimal gripping system for robots. The author presents a gripping technique, using a system of fingers, that can be applied to objects with unpredictable surfaces and varying external forces. This is achieved through a mathematical formula that calculates the precise force each finger needs to exert to maintain a stable grip. The author proves that finding the smallest value for this formula is an NP-hard problem and provides two algorithms to produce either an exact solution or a close approximation to it. Ultimately, this book represents a significant contribution to the field of robotics, providing a theoretical framework for the development of more efficient and versatile gripping systems.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex problem of identifying and matching partially obscured objects in 2D and 3D scenes. Through the lens of noisy, incomplete data, the author explores efficient methods for smoothing data and matching portions of observed object boundaries to pre-stored models. While similar techniques use tangent direction estimates to make matches, this book employs high-speed algorithms to calculate optimal rotations and translations for a given match. The approach also bears relation to methods described in [GLP84], [GLP85], but operates independently of any assumption that objects to be identified should be polygonal or polyhedral. Drawing on examples from computer vision, industrial environments, and more, this book offers a robust and efficient approach to object identification that can be applied to a wide range of problems.
