- Abstract: Elevator button recognition is considered an indispensable function for
enabling the autonomous elevator operation of mobile robots. However, due to
unfavorable image conditions and various image distortions, the recognition
accuracy remains to be improved. In this paper, we present a novel algorithm
that can autonomously correct perspective distortions of elevator panel images.
The algorithm first leverages the Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) to conduct a
grid fitting process based on button recognition results, then utilizes the
estimated grid centers as reference features to estimate camera motions for
correcting perspective distortions. The algorithm performs on a single image
autonomously and does not need explicit feature detection or feature matching
procedure, which is much more robust to noises and outliers than traditional
feature-based geometric approaches. To verify the effectiveness of the
algorithm, we collect an elevator panel dataset of 50 images captured from
different angles of view. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm
can accurately estimate camera motions and effectively remove perspective
distortions.

We study the problem of stereo matching from a pair of images with different resolutions, e.g., those acquired with a tele-wide camera system.
We propose to impose the consistency between two views in a feature space instead of the image space, named feature-metric consistency.
We find that, although a stereo matching network trained with the photometric loss is not optimal, its feature extractor can produce degradation-agnostic and matching-specific features.

We introduce a measure for machine perception inspired by the concept of Just Noticeable Difference (JND) of human perception.
We suggest an adversarial image generation algorithm, which iteratively distorts an image by an additive noise until the machine learning model detects the change in the image by outputting a false label.
We evaluate the adversarial images generated by our algorithm both qualitatively and quantitatively on CIFAR10, ImageNet, and MS COCO datasets.
