One of the aims of cognitive robotics is to endow robots with the ability to plan solutions for complex goals and then to enact those plans. Additionally, robots should react properly upon encountering unexpected changes ... -
Combining segmentation and attention: a new foveal attention model.
Marfil-Robles, Rebeca; Palomino, Antonio J.; Bandera-Rubio, Antonio Jesús (Frontiers, 2014-08-14)
Artificial vision systems cannot process all the information that they receive from the world in real time because it is highly expensive and inefficient in terms of computational cost. Inspired by biological perception ... -
A Novel Biologically Inspired Attention Mechanism for a Social Robot.
Palomino, Antonio J.; Marfil-Robles, Rebeca; Bandera-Rubio, Juan Pedro; Bandera-Rubio, Antonio Jesús (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2010-11-30)
In biological vision systems, the attention mechanism is responsible for selecting the relevant information from the sensed field of view. In robotics, this ability is specially useful because of the restrictions in ... -
