Probabilistic 3D Multi-Object Cooperative Tracking for Autonomous Driving via Differentiable Multi-Sensor Kalman Filter
NSH 3305Abstract: Current state-of-the-art autonomous driving vehicles mainly rely on each individual sensor system to perform perception tasks. Such a framework's reliability could be limited by occlusion or sensor failure. To address this issue, more recent research proposes using vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication to share perception information with others. However, most relevant works focus only on cooperative [...]
Super Odometry: Selective Fusion Towards All-degraded Environments
GHC 6501Abstract: Robust odometry is at the core of robotics and autonomous systems operating navigation, exploration, and locomotion in complex environments for a broad spectrum of applications. While great progress has been made, the robustness of the odometry system still remains a grand challenge. This talk introduces Super Odometry, an approach that leverages selective fusion to [...]
Improved Surface Estimation for use in Virtual Fixtures during Retinal Surgery
NSH 1305Abstract: Retinal surgery procedures require surgeons to manipulate very delicate tissues with little room for error. During epiretinal membrane surgery, to reduce chances of recurrence, surgeons may have to remove the 10 µm thick internal limiting membrane from the retinal surface. An experimental procedure to treat retinal vein occlusion is retinal vein cannulation. During this [...]
