• Abstract summary: We show that a rule-based approach that uses plane detection, to detect free areas, performs poorly. We develop PonNet, which has multimodal attention branches and a self-attention mechanism to predict damaging collisions. Our method can visualize the risk of damaging collisions, which is convenient because it enables the user to understand the risk.

• Abstract: Placing objects is a fundamental task for domestic service robots (DSRs). Thus, inferring the collision-risk before a placing motion is crucial for achieving the requested task. This problem is particularly challenging because it is necessary to predict what happens if an object is placed in a cluttered designated area. We show that a rule-based approach that uses plane detection, to detect free areas, performs poorly. To address this, we develop PonNet, which has multimodal attention branches and a self-attention mechanism to predict damaging collisions, based on RGBD images. Our method can visualize the risk of damaging collisions, which is convenient because it enables the user to understand the risk. For this purpose, we build and publish an original dataset that contains 12,000 photo-realistic images of specific placing areas, with daily life objects, in home environments. The experimental results show that our approach improves accuracy compared with the baseline methods.

• To Make Yourself Invisible with Adversarial Semantic Contours [47.755808439588094]
  Adversarial Semantic Contour (ASC) is an estimate of a Bayesian formulation of sparse attack with a deceived prior of object contour. We show that ASC can corrupt the prediction of 9 modern detectors with different architectures. We conclude with cautions about contour being the common weakness of object detectors with various architecture.
