Single-shot clothing category recognition in free-configurations with application to autonomous clothes sorting

IROS 2017poster

This paper proposes a single-shot approach for recognising clothing categories from 2.5D features. We propose two visual features, BSP (B-Spline Patch) and TSD (Topology Spatial Distances) for this task. The local BSP features are encoded by LLC (Locality-constrained Linear Coding) and fused with th…

Fast Parameter Inference in Nonlinear Dynamical Systems using Iterative Gradient Matching

ICML 2016poster

Parameter inference in mechanistic models of coupled differential equations is a topical and challenging problem. We propose a new method based on kernel ridge regression and gradient matching, and an objective function that simultaneously encourages goodness of fit and penalises inconsistencies wit…

Recognising the clothing categories from free-configuration using Gaussian-Process-based interactive perception

ICRA 2016

In this paper, we propose a Gaussian Process-based interactive perception approach for recognising highly-wrinkled clothes. We have integrated this recognition method within a clothes sorting pipeline for the pre-washing stage of an autonomous laundering process. Our approach differs from reported c

Accurate garment surface analysis using an active stereo robot head with application to dual-arm flattening

ICRA 2015poster

We present a visually guided, dual-arm, industrial robot system that is capable of autonomously flattening garments by means of a novel visual perception pipeline that fully interprets high-quality RGB-D images of a clothing scene based on an active stereo robot head. A segmented clothing range map…
