Based on concepts of the human visual system, computational visual attention systems aim
to detect regions of interest in images. Psychologists, neurobiologists, and computer …

Most previous studies on visual saliency have only focused on static or dynamic 2D scenes.
Since the human visual system has evolved predominantly in natural three dimensional …

Object detection and recognition is a topic of significant interest in computer and robot
vision. It is required in most applications of computational vision, for example, biometric …

Object recognition and visual attention are tightly linked processes in human perception.
Over the last three decades, many models have been suggested to explain these two …

Environmental sensing is crucial for the effective operation of mobile robots, particularly on
construction sites where conditions can change rapidly. While some studies have …

We propose new integrated saliency map and selective motion analysis models partly
inspired by a biological visual attention mechanism. The proposed models consider not only …

In this paper we address the problem of obtaining meaningful saliency measures that tie in
coherently with other methods and modalities within larger robotic systems. We learn …

In this paper, we present a new combination of a biologically inspired attention system
(VOCUS–Visual Object detection with a CompUtational attention System) with a robust …

3D visual attention plays an important role in both human and robotics perception that yet
has to be explored in full detail. However, the majority of computer vision and robotics …

This paper presents a robust and real-time capable recognition system for the fast detection
and classification of objects in spatial 3D data. Depth and reflection data from a 3D laser …
