The ubiquity of PID controllers in the industry has remained mysterious until now. We provide here a mathematical explanation of this strange phenomenon by comparing their sampling with the the one of "intelligent" PID controllers, which were recently introduced. Some computer simulations nevertheless confirm the superiority of the new intelligent feedback design.
We present promising results for real-time vehicle visual detection, obtained with adaBoost using new original ?keypoints presence features?. These weak-classifiers produce a boolean response based on presence or absence in the tested image of a ?keypoint? (~ a SURF interest point) with a descriptor sufficiently similar (i.e. within a given distance) to a reference descriptor characterizing the feature. A first experiment was conducted on a public image dataset containing lateral-viewed cars, yielding 95% recall with 95% precision on test set. Moreover, analysis of the positions of adaBoost-selected keypoints show that they correspond to a specific part of the object category (such as ?wheel? or ?side skirt?) and thus have a ?semantic? meaning.
We present promising results for visual object categorization, obtained with adaBoost using new original ?keypoints-based features?. These weak-classifiers produce a boolean response based on presence or absence in the tested image of a ?keypoint? (a kind of SURF interest point) with a descriptor sufficiently similar (i.e. within a given distance) to a reference descriptor characterizing the feature. A first experiment was conducted on a public image dataset containing lateral-viewed cars, yielding 95% recall with 95% precision on test set. Preliminary tests on a small subset of a pedestrians database also gives promising 97% recall with 92 % precision, which shows the generality of our new family of features. Moreover, analysis of the positions of adaBoost-selected keypoints show that they correspond to a specific part of the object category (such as ?wheel? or ?side skirt? in the case of lateral-cars) and thus have a ?semantic? meaning. We also made a first test on video for detecting vehicles from adaBoostselected keypoints filtered in real-time from all detected keypoints.
