We present a real-time three-dimensional automatic target recognition approach appropriate for future light detection and ranging-based missiles. Our technique extends the speeded-up robust features method into the third ...

In recent years, there has been a growing demand for small vehicles targeted at users with mobility restrictions and designed to operate on pedestrian areas. The users of these vehicles are generally required to be in ...

Optical-based navigation for space is a field growing in popularity due to the appeal of efficient techniques such as Visual Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (VSLAM), which rely on automatic feature tracking with ...

This work considers the cooperative trajectory-planning problem along a double lane change scenario for autonomous driving. In this paper we develop two frameworks to solve this problem based on distributed model predictive ...

We propose a light detection and ranging (LIDAR)‐based relative navigation scheme that is appropriate for uncooperative relative space navigation applications. Our technique combines the encoding power of the three‐dimensional ...

Understanding the decision-making process of deep learning networks is a key challenge which has rarely been investigated for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images. In this paper, a set of new analytical tools is proposed ...

This paper proposes a secondary reactive collision avoidance system for micro class of robots based on a novel approach known as the Furcated Luminance-Difference Processing (FLDP) inspired by the Lobula Giant Movement ...

This work proposes a high-speed Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) based navigation architecture that is appropriate for uncooperative relative space navigation applications. In contrast to current solutions that exploit ...

Current light detection and ranging (LIDAR) based odometry solutions that are used for spacecraft relative navigation suffer from quite a few deficiencies. These include an off-line training requirement and relying on the ...

We propose an architecture appropriate for future Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) active homing seeker missiles with Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) capabilities. Our proposal enhances military targeting performance ...
