Abstract
En 中文
Recent work in the object recognition community has yielded a class of interest-point-based features that are stable under significant changes in scale, viewpoint, and illumination, making them ideally suited to landmark-based navigation. Although many such features may be visible in a given view of the robot's environment, only a few such features are necessary to estimate the robot's position and orientation. In this paper, we address the problem of automatically selecting, from the entire set of features visible in the robot's environment, the minimum (optimal) set by which the robot can navigate its environment. Specifically, we decompose the world into a small number of maximally sized regions, such that at each position in a given region, the same small set of features is visible. We introduce a novel graph theoretic formulation of the problem, and prove that it is NP-complete. Next, we introduce a number of approximation algorithms and evaluate them on both synthetic and real data. Finally, we use the decompositions from the real image data to measure the localization performance versus the undecomposed map.
