Описание: This volume collects significant results of the research Project called "SPARK". Its aim was to develop new cognitive architectures and sensing-perceiving-moving artefacts, inspired by the basic principles of living systems and based on "self-organization".
Описание: Describing a cutting-edge project that used a computational model of an insect brain to enable spatial awareness in mobile robots, this volume shows how today`s scientists are blending biologically inspired networks and complex, nonlinear dynamical systems.
Описание: This book presents the result of a joint effort from different European Institutions within the framework of the EU funded project called SPARK II, devoted to device an insect brain computational model, useful to be embedded into autonomous robotic agents. Part I reports the biological background on Drosophila melanogaster with particular attention to the main centers which are used as building blocks for the implementation of the insect brain computational model. Part II reports the mathematical approach to model the Central Pattern Generator used for the gait generation in a six-legged robot. Also the Reaction-diffusion principles in non-linear lattices are exploited to develop a compact internal representation of a dynamically changing environment for behavioral planning. In Part III a software/hardware framework, developed to integrate the insect brain computational model in a simulated/real robotic platform, is illustrated. The different robots used for the experiments are also described. Moreover the problems related to the vision system were addressed proposing robust solutions for object identification and feature extraction. Part IV includes the relevant scenarios used in the experiments to test the capabilities of the insect brain-inspired architecture taking as comparison the biological case. Experimental results are finally reported, whose multimedia can be found in the SPARK II web page: www.spark2.diees.unict.it

Описание: The topic of level sets is currently very timely and useful for creating realistic 3-D images and animations. They are powerful numerical techniques for analyzing and computing interface motion in a host of application settings. In computer vision, it has been applied to stereo and segmentation, whereas in graphics it has been applied to the postproduction process of in-painting and 3-D model construction.Osher is co-inventor of the Level Set Methods, a pioneering framework introduced jointly with James Sethian from the University of Berkeley in 1998. This methodology has been used up to now to provide solutions to a wide application range not limited to image processing, computer vision, robotics, fluid mechanics, crystallography, lithography, and computer graphics.The topic is of great interest to advanced students, professors, and R&D professionals working in the areas of graphics (post-production), video-based surveillance, visual inspection, augmented reality, document image processing, and medical image processing. These techniques are already employed to provide solutions and products in the industry (Cognitech, Siemens, Philips, Focus Imaging). An essential compilation of survey chapters from the leading researchers in the field, emphasizing the applications of the methods. This book can be suitable for a short professional course related with the processing of visual information.
