Abstract:
The main task in this thesis is to design a robot vision system with face detection and tracking capability. Hence there are two main works in the thesis: Firstly, the detection of the face on an image that is taken from the camera on the robot must be achieved. Hence this is a serious real time image processing task and time constraints are very important because of this reason. A processing rate of 1 frame/second is tried to be achieved and hence a fast face detection algorithm had to be used. The Eigenface method and the Subspace LDA (Linear Discriminant Analysis) method are implemented, tested and compared for face detection and Eigenface method proposed by Turk and Pentland is decided to be used. The images are first passed through a number of preprocessing algorithms to obtain better performance, like skin detection, histogram equalization etc. After this filtering process the face candidate regions are put through the face detection algorithm to understand whether there is a face or not in the image. Some modifications are applied to the eigenface algorithm to detect the faces better and faster. Secondly, the robot must move towards the face in the image. This task includes robot motion. The robot to be used for this purpose is a Pioneer 2-DX8 Plus, which is a product of ActivMedia Robotics Inc. and only the interfaces to move the robot have been implemented in the thesis software. The robot is to detect the faces at different distances and arrange its position according to the distance of the human to the robot. Hence a scaling mechanism must be used either in the training images, or in the input image taken from the camera. Because of timing constraint and low camera resolution, a limited number of scaling is applied in the face detection process. With this reason faces of people who are very far or very close to the robot will not be detected. A background independent face detection system is tried to be designed. However the resultant algorithm is slightly dependent to the background. There is no any other constraints in the system.

Abstract:
Object recognition has been one of the main areas of research into computer vision in the last 20-30 years. Until recently most of this research has been performed on scenes taken using static monocular, binocular or even trinocular cameras. It is believed, however, that by adding the ability to move the look point and concentrate on a region of interest a more robust and efficient method of vision can be achieved. Recent studies into the ability to provide human-like vision systems for a more active approach to vision have lead to the development of a number of robot controlled vision systems. In this thesis the development of one such system at the University of Surrey, the stereo robot head "Getafix" is described. The design, construction and development of the head and its control system have been undertaken as part of this project with the aim of improving current vision tasks, in particular, that of object recognition. In this thesis the design of the control systems, kinematics and control software of the stereo robot head will be discussed. A number of simple commissioning experiments are also shown, using the concepts of the robot control developed herein. Camera lens control and calibration is also described. A review of classical primitive based object recognition systems is given and the development of a novel generic cylindrical object recognition strategy is shown. The use of this knowledge source is demonstrated with other vision processes of colour and stereo. The work on the cylinder recognition strategy and the stereo robot head are finally combined within an active vision framework. A purposive active vision strategy is used to detect cylindrical structures, that would otherwise be undetectable by the cylindrical object detection algorithm alone.

Abstract:
Most applications in computer vision suffer from two major difficulties. The first is they are notoriously ridden with sub-optimal local minima. The second is that they typically require high computational cost to be solved robustly. The reason for these two drawbacks is that most problems in computer vision, even when well-defined, typically require finding a solution in a very large high-dimensional space. It is for these two reasons that multiscale methods are particularly well-suited to problems in computer vision. Multiscale methods, by way of looking at the coarse scale nature of a problem before considering the fine scale nature, often have the ability to avoid sub-optimal local minima and obtain a more globally optimal solution. In addition, multiscale methods typically enjoy reduced computational cost. This thesis applies novel multiscale active contour methods to several problems in computer vision, especially in simultaneous segmentation and reconstruction of tomography images. In addition, novel multiscale methods are applied to contour registration using minimal surfaces and to the computation of non-linear rotationally invariant optical flow. Finally, a methodology for fast robust image segmentation is presented that relies on a lower dimensional image basis derived from an image scale space. The specific advantages of using multiscale methods in each of these problems is highlighted in the various simulations throughout the thesis, particularly their ability to avoid sub-optimal local minima and their ability to solve the problems at a lower overall computational cost.
