Adaptive Navigation Scheme for Optimal Deep-Sea Localization Using Multimodal Perception Cues
Arturo Gomez Chavez, Qingwen Xu, Christian A. Mueller +2
Underwater robot interventions require a high level of safety and reliability. A major challenge to address is a robust and accurate acquisition of localization estimates, as it is…
Improved Fourier Mellin Invariant for Robust Rotation Estimation with Omni-cameras
Qingwen Xu, Arturo Gomez Chavez, Heiko Bülow +2
Spectral methods such as the improved Fourier Mellin Invariant (iFMI) transform have proved faster, more robust and accurate than feature based methods on image registration. Howev…
Robust Gesture-Based Communication for Underwater Human-Robot Interaction in the context of Search and Rescue Diver Missions
Arturo Gomez Chavez, Christian A. Mueller, Tobias Doernbach +2
We propose a robust gesture-based communication pipeline for divers to instruct an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) to assist them in performing high-risk tasks and helping in c…
Towards Robot-Centric Conceptual Knowledge Acquisition
Georg Jäger, Christian A. Mueller, Madhura Thosar +2
Robots require knowledge about objects in order to efficiently perform various household tasks involving objects. The existing knowledge bases for robots acquire symbolic knowledge…
Robust Continuous System Integration for Critical Deep-Sea Robot Operations Using Knowledge-Enabled Simulation in the Loop
Christian A. Mueller, Tobias Doernbach, Arturo Gomez Chavez +2
Deep-sea robot operations demand a high level of safety, efficiency and reliability. As a consequence, measures within the development stage have to be implemented to extensively e…
Knowledge-Enabled Robotic Agents for Shelf Replenishment in Cluttered Retail Environments
Jan Winkler, Ferenc Balint-Benczedi, Thiemo Wiedemeyer +5
Autonomous robots in unstructured and dynamically changing retail environments have to master complex perception, knowledgeprocessing, and manipulation tasks. To enable them to act…
