Indoor object detection is a very demanding and important task for robot applications. Object knowledge, such as two-dimensional (2D) shape and depth information, may be helpful for detection. In this article, we focus on region-based convolutional neural network (CNN) detector and propose a geometric property-based Faster R-CNN method (GP-Faster) for indoor object detection. GP-Faster incorporates geometric property in Faster R-CNN to improve the detection performance. In detail, we first use mesh grids that are the intersections of direct and inverse proportion functions to generate appropriate anchors for indoor objects. After the anchors are regressed to the regions of interest produced by a region proposal network (RPN-RoIs), we then use 2D geometric constraints to refine the RPN-RoIs, in which the 2D constraint of every classification is a convex hull region enclosing the width and height coordinates of the ground-truth boxes on the training set. Comparison experiments are implemented on two indoor datasets SUN2012 and NYUv2. Since the depth information is available in NYUv2, we involve depth constraints in GP-Faster and propose 3D geometric property-based Faster R-CNN (DGP-Faster) on NYUv2. The experimental results show that both GP-Faster and DGP-Faster increase the performance of the mean average precision.

Automated Driving

As automated vehicles have been considered one of the important trends in intelligent transportation systems, various research is being conducted to enhance their safety. In particular, the importance of technologies for the design of preventive automated driving systems, such as detection of surrounding objects and estimation of distance between vehicles. Object detection is mainly performed through cameras and LiDAR, but due to the cost and limits of LiDAR’s recognition distance, the need to improve Camera recognition technique, which is relatively convenient for commercialization, is increasing. This study learned convolutional neural network (CNN)-based faster regions with CNN (Faster R-CNN) and You Only Look Once (YOLO) V2 to improve the recognition techniques of vehicle-mounted monocular cameras for the design of preventive automated driving systems, recognizing surrounding vehicles in black box highway driving videos and estimating distances from surrounding vehicles through more suitable models for automated driving systems. Moreover, we learned the PASCAL visual object classes (VOC) dataset for model comparison. Faster R-CNN showed similar accuracy, with a mean average precision (mAP) of 76.4 to YOLO with a mAP of 78.6, but with a Frame Per Second (FPS) of 5, showing slower processing speed than YOLO V2 with an FPS of 40, and a Faster R-CNN, which we had difficulty detecting. As a result, YOLO V2, which shows better performance in accuracy and processing speed, was determined to be a more suitable model for automated driving systems, further progressing in estimating the distance between vehicles. For distance estimation, we conducted coordinate value conversion through camera calibration and perspective transform, set the threshold to 0.7, and performed object detection and distance estimation, showing more than 80% accuracy for near-distance vehicles. Through this study, it is believed that it will be able to help prevent accidents in automated vehicles, and it is expected that additional research will provide various accident prevention alternatives such as calculating and securing appropriate safety distances, depending on the vehicle types.

Background: While detecting the object directly from the 3D point cloud, the natural 3D patterns and invariance of 3D data are often obscure. Objective: In this work, we aimed at studying the 3D object detection from discrete, disordered and sparse 3D point clouds. Methods: The CNN is composed of the frustum sequence module, 3D instance segmentation module S-NET, 3D point cloud transformation module T-NET, and 3D boundary box estimation module E-NET. The search space of the object is determined by the frustum sequence module. The instance segmentation of the point cloud is performed by the 3D instance segmentation module. The 3D coordinates of the object are confirmed by the transformation module and the 3D bounding box estimation module. Results: Evaluated on KITTI benchmark dataset, our method outperforms the state of the art by remarkable margins while having real-time capability. Conclusion: We achieve real-time 3D object detection by proposing an improved convolutional neural network (CNN) based on image-driven point clouds.

In the image object detection task, a huge number of candidate boxes are generated to match with a relatively very small amount of ground-truth boxes, and through this method the learning samples can be created. But in fact the vast majority of the candidate boxes do not contain valid object instances and should be recognized and rejected during the training and evaluation of the network. This leads to extra high computation burden and a serious imbalance problem between object and none-object samples, thereby impeding the algorithm’s performance. Here we propose a new heuristic sampling method to generate candidate boxes for two-stage detection algorithms. It is generally applicable to the current two-stage detection algorithms to improve their detection performance. Experiments on COCO dataset showed that, relative to the baseline model, this new method could significantly increase the detection accuracy and efficiency.

In the last couple of years, advancements in the deep learning, especially in convolutional neural networks, proved to be a boon for the image classification and recognition tasks. One of the important practical applications of object detection and image classification can be for security enhancement. If dangerous objects or scenes can be identified automatically, then a lot of accidents can be prevented. For this purpose, in this paper we made use of state-of-the-art implementation of Faster Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (Faster R-CNN) based on the monitoring video of hoisting sites to train a model to detect the dangerous object and the worker. By extracting the locations of them, object-human interactions during hoisting, mainly for changes in their spatial location relationship, can be understood whereby estimating whether the scene is safe or dangerous. Experimental results showed that the pre-trained model achieved good performance with a high mean average precision of 97.66% on object detection and the proposed method fulfilled the goal of dangerous scenes recognition perfectly.
