Unknown Object Detection Using a One-Class Support Vector Machine for a Cloud–Robot System

Inter-robot communication and high computational power are challenging issues for deploying indoor mobile robot applications with sensor data processing. Thus, this paper presents an efficient cloud-based multirobot framework with inter-robot communication and high computational power to deploy autonomous mobile robots for indoor applications. Deployment of usable indoor service robots requires uninterrupted movement and enhanced robot vision with a robust classification of objects and obstacles using vision sensor data in the indoor environment. However, state-of-the-art methods face degraded indoor object and obstacle recognition for multiobject vision frames and unknown objects in complex and dynamic environments. From these points of view, this paper proposes a new object segmentation model to separate objects from a multiobject robotic view-frame. In addition, we present a…
