Based on the concepts of dynamic field theory (DFT), we present an architecture that autonomously generates scene representations by controlling gaze and attention, creating visual objects in the foreground, tracking objects, reading them into working memory, and taking into account their visibility. At the core of this architecture are three-dimensional dynamic neural fields (DNFs) that link feature to spatial information. These three-dimensional fields couple into lower dimensional fields, which provide the links to the sensory surface and to the motor systems. We discuss how DNFs can be used as building blocks for cognitive architectures, characterize the critical bifurcations in DNFs, as well as the possible coupling structures among DNFs. In a series of robotic experiments, we demonstrate how the DNF architecture provides the core functionalities of a scene representation.
In this review, we describe current Machine Learning approaches to hand gesture recognition with depth data from time-of-flight sensors. In particular, we summarise the achievements on a line of research at the Computational Neuroscience laboratory at the Ruhr West University of Applied Sciences. Relating our results to the work of others in this field, we confirm that Convolutional Neural Networks and Long Short-Term Memory yield most reliable results. We investigated several sensor data fusion techniques in a deep learning framework and performed user studies to evaluate our system in practice. During our course of research, we gathered and published our data in a novel benchmark dataset (REHAP), containing over a million unique three-dimensional hand posture samples.
For face recognition from video streams speed and accuracy are vital aspects. The first decision whether a preprocessed image region represents a human face or not is often made by a feed-forward neural network (NN), e.g. in the Viisage-FaceFINDER® video surveillance system. We describe the optimisation of such a NN by a hybrid algorithm combining evolutionary multi-objective optimisation (EMO) and gradient-based learning. The evolved solutions perform considerably faster than an expert-designed architecture without loss of accuracy. We compare an EMO and a single objective approach, both with online search strategy adaptation. It turns out that EMO is preferable to the single objective approach in several respects.
Das vorliegende Paper gibt einen Überblick über das Verhalten von modernen, autonom navigierenden Fahrzeugen in Baustellen. Dabei werden besondere Herausforderungen für die autonome Navigation im Baustellenbereich benannt. Außerdem wird ein Überblick über die Sensorausstattung und die Fahrerassistenzsysteme von modernen Fahrzeugen gegeben und es werden Technologien vorgestellt, die für eine Verbesserung der autonomen Navigation durch Baustellen genutzt werden können. Es wird ein Versuch durchgeführt, der aufzeigt, wie zuverlässig moderne Fahrzeuge durch Baustellensituationen navigieren können. Dabei werden Schwachstellen, wie bspw. die mangelnde Verfügbarkeit von Fahrerassistenzsystemen bei niedrigen Geschwindigkeiten, aufgedeckt.
Autonomous driving is one of the future visions in which many vehicle manufacturers are working with high pressure.
Nowadays, it is already supported partially by high-class vehicles. A completely autonomous journey is indeed the goal, but in cars for
the public road traffic still not available. Automatic lane keeping assistants, speed regulators as well as shield and obstacle detections
are parts or precursors on the way to completely autonomous driving.
The American vehicle manufacturer Tesla is not only known for its electric drive, but also for the fact that high-pressure work is carried out on the autonomous drive. Tesla is thus the only vehicle manufacturer to use its users as so-called beta testers for its assistance systems. The progress and the function of the currently available Model S in the field of assistance systems and autonomic driving is documented and described in this paper. It is shown how good or bad the test vehicle manages scenarios in normal road traffic situations
with the assistance systems, e.g. lane keeping assistant, speed control, lane change and distance assistant, and which scenarios can
not be managed by the vehicle itself.
