Abstract
A distributed architecture articulated around the CODGER (communication database with geometric reasoning) knowledge database is described for a mobile robot system that includes both perception and navigation tools. Results are described for vision and navigation tests using a mobile testbed that integrates perception and navigation capabilities that are based on two types of vision algorithms: color vision for road following, and 3-D vision for obstacle detection and avoidance. The perception modules are integrated into a system that allows the vehicle to drive continuously in an actual outdoor environment. The resulting system is able to navigate continuously on roads while avoiding obstacles. >

Road markings recognition using image processing

TL;DR: In this article, a three-level road marking recognition algorithm is proposed for road markings recognition, which reduces the analysis area to the roadway and a road markings detection is performed in this area, leading to a polygonal representation of road markings; and the parameters to be transmitted to the repainting system are extracted.

Adaptive Intelligent Vehicle Modules for Tactical Driving

TL;DR: An evolutionary algorithm is used, termed Population-Based Incremental Learning, to automatically set each reasoning modules’ parameters, which allows to determine whether the combination of chosen modules is well suited for the desired task, enables the rapid integration of new modules into existing SAPIENT configurations, and provides a painless way to find good parameter settings.
