Abstract

We propose a novel object recognition system that is able to (i) work in real-time while reconstructing segmented 3D maps and simultaneously recognize objects in a scene, (ii) manage various kinds of objects, including those with smooth surfaces and those with a large number of categories, utilizing a CNN for feature extraction, and (iii) maintain high accuracy no matter how the camera moves by distributing the viewpoints for each object uniformly and aggregating recognition results from each distributed viewpoint as the same weight. Through experiments, the advantages of our system with respect to current state-of-the-art object recognition approaches are demonstrated on the UW RGB-D Dataset and Scenes and on our own scenes prepared to verify the effectiveness of the Viewpoint-Class-based approach.
