Active Planning, Sensing, and Recognition Using a Resource-Constrained Discriminant POMDP
Abstract
In this paper, we address the problem of object class recognition via observations from actively selected views/modalities/features under limited resource budgets. A Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) is employed to find optimal sensing and recognition actions with the goal of long-term classification accuracy. Hetero-geneous resource constraints – such as motion, number of measurements and bandwidth – are explicitly modeled in the state variable, and a prohibitively high penalty is used to prevent the violation of any resource constraint. To improve recognition performance, we further incorporate discrim-inative classification models with POMDP, and customize the reward function and observation model correspond-ingly. The proposed model is validated on several data sets for multi-view, multi-modal vehicle classification and multi-view face recognition, and demonstrates improvement in both recognition and resource management over greedy methods and previous POMDP formulations. 1.
