METRIC SCALE CALCULATION FOR VISUAL MAPPING ALGORITHMS

METRIC SCALE CALCULATION FOR VISUAL MAPPING ALGORITHMS

Visual SLAM algorithms allow localizing the camera by mapping its environment by a point cloud based on visual cues.To obtain the camera locations in a metric coordinate system, the metric scale of the point cloud has to be known.This contribution describes a method to calculate the metric scale for a point cloud of an indoor environment, like a pa

Biological role of marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) in habitat manipulation and sustenance of natural enemy populations in upland rice

The re-designing of agricultural systems in integrated pest management (IPM) has been aimed at reducing the use of synthetic pesticides to manage pests.In conservation biological control, the cropping habitat is manipulated to provide vital resources that are required by natural enemies to suppress pest populations.Habitat manipulation is an exampl

Both Constitutive and Infection-Responsive Secondary Metabolites Linked to Resistance against Austropuccinia psidii (Myrtle Rust) in Melaleuca quinquenervia

Austropuccinia psidii is a fungal plant pathogen that infects species within the Myrtaceae, causing the disease myrtle rust.Myrtle rust is causing declines in populations within natural and managed ecosystems and is expected to result in species extinctions.Despite this, variation in response to A.psidii exist within some species, from complete sus

Scaling dynamic response and destructive metabolism in an immunosurveillant anti-tumor system modulated by different external periodic interventions.

On the basis of two universal power-law scaling laws, i.e.the scaling dynamic hysteresis in physics and the allometric scaling metabolism in biosystem, we studied the dynamic response and the evolution of an immunosurveillant anti-tumor system subjected to a periodic external intervention, which is equivalent to the scheme of a radiotherapy or chem
