prof. Jana Košecká presents Semantic Understanding for Robot Perception

On 2017-10-30 16:00:00 at G205, Karlovo náměstí 13, Praha 2
Advancements in robotic navigation, mapping, object search and recognition rest
to a large extent on robust, efficient and scalable semantic understanding of
the surrounding environment. In recent years we have developed several approach
es for capturing geometry and semantics of environment from video, RGB-D data,
or just simply a single RGB image, focusing on indoors and outdoors
environments

relevant for robotics applications.
I will demonstrate our work on detailed semantic parsing and 3D structure
recovery
using deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and object detection and object

pose recovery from single RGB image. The applicability of the presented
techniques
for autonomous driving, service robotics, mapping and augmented reality
applications will be discussed.
