Early Perceptual and Cognitive Development in Robot Vision

摘要

This paper describes research on the design of a robot vision system that is able to develop its capabilities to perceive objects and cognise some fundamental relations between objects. Through a developmental approach, our robot vision system is adaptive to environmental changes and follows autonomous self development. The system can develop its vision gradually from motion detection, to analysis of static features of objects, to object individuation, to identifying object unity, to tracking objects and finally to understanding some fundamental object relations.
