First, the IFC model is converted to the CityGML model using the BIM model as the indoor data source. Then, using GIS technology and limited Delaunay triangulation refinement algorithm, the necessary elements of indoor navigate on network model such as semantic information, geometric information and topological relationship contained in CityGML model are extracted. Finally, it is visualized and verified based on experimental model data. The results show that the indoor navigation network model constructed based on the CityGML model can accurately perform indoor navigation, make the constructed road network more general, and provide reference and technical support for the integrated construction of indoor and outdoor road network models.展开更多

文摘This study focuses on the improvement of path planning efficiency for underwater gravity-aided navigation.Firstly,a Depth Sorting Fast Search(DSFS)algorithm was proposed to improve the planning speed of the Quick Rapidly-exploring Random Trees*(Q-RRT*)algorithm.A cost inequality relationship between an ancestor and its descendants was derived,and the ancestors were filtered accordingly.Secondly,the underwater gravity-aided navigation path planning system was designed based on the DSFS algorithm,taking into account the fitness,safety,and asymptotic optimality of the routes,according to the gravity suitability distribution of the navigation space.Finally,experimental comparisons of the computing performance of the ChooseParent procedure,the Rewire procedure,and the combination of the two procedures for Q-RRT*and DSFS were conducted under the same planning environment and parameter conditions,respectively.The results showed that the computational efficiency of the DSFS algorithm was improved by about 1.2 times compared with the Q-RRT*algorithm while ensuring correct computational results.

文摘The inertial navigation system(INS),which is frequently used in emergency rescue operations and other situations,has the benefits of not relying on infrastructure,high positioning frequency,and strong real-time performance.However,the intricate and unpredictable pedestrian motion patterns lead the INS localization error to significantly diverge with time.This paper aims to enhance the accuracy of zero-velocity interval(ZVI)detection and reduce the heading and altitude drift of foot-mounted INS via deep learning and equation constraint of dual feet.Aiming at the observational noise problem of low-cost inertial sensors,we utilize a denoising autoencoder to automatically eliminate the inherent noise.Aiming at the problem that inaccurate detection of the ZVI detection results in obvious displacement error,we propose a sample-level ZVI detection algorithm based on the U-Net neural network,which effectively solves the problem of mislabeling caused by sliding windows.Aiming at the problem that Zero-Velocity Update(ZUPT)cannot suppress heading and altitude error,we propose a bipedal INS method based on the equation constraint and ellipsoid constraint,which uses foot-to-foot distance as a new observation to correct heading and altitude error.We conduct extensive and well-designed experiments to evaluate the performance of the proposed method.The experimental results indicate that the position error of our proposed method did not exceed 0.83% of the total traveled distance.

文摘In a controlled indoor environment,line tracking has become the most practical and reliable navigation strategy for autonomous mobile robots.A line tracking robot is a self-mobile machine that can recognize and track a painted line on thefloor.In general,the path is set and can be visible,such as a black line on a white surface with high contrasting colors.The robot’s path is marked by a distinct line or track,which the robot follows to move.Several scientific contributions from the disciplines of vision and control have been made to mobile robot vision-based navigation.Localization,automated map generation,autonomous navigation and path tracking is all becoming more frequent in vision applications.A visual navigation line tracking robot should detect the line with a camera using an image processing technique.The paper focuses on combining computer vision techniques with a proportional-integral-derivative(PID)control-ler for automatic steering and speed control.A prototype line tracking robot is used to evaluate the proposed control strategy.

文摘Based on the high positioning accuracy,low cost and low-power consumption,the ultra-wide-band(UWB)is an ideal solution for indoor unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)localization and navigation.However,the UWB signals are easy to be blocked or reflected by obstacles such as walls and furniture.A resilient tightly-coupled inertial navigation system(INS)/UWB integration is proposed and implemented for indoor UAV navigation in this paper.A factor graph optimization(FGO)method enhanced by resilient stochastic model is established to cope with the indoor challenging scenarios.To deal with the impact of UWB non-line-of-sight(NLOS)signals and noise uncertainty,the conventional neural net-works(CNNs)are introduced into the stochastic modelling to improve the resilience and reliability of the integration.Based on the status that the UWB features are limited,a‘two-phase'CNNs structure was designed and implemented:one for signal classification and the other one for measurement noise prediction.The proposed resilient FGO method is tested on flighting UAV platform under actual indoor challenging scenario.Compared to classical FGO method,the overall positioning errors can be decreased from about 0.60 m to centimeter-level under signal block and reflection scenarios.The superiority of resilient FGO which effectively verified in constrained environment is pretty important for positioning accuracy and integrity for indoor navigation task.

文摘Background Navigation assistance is essential for users when roaming virtual reality scenes;however,the traditional navigation method requires users to manually request a map for viewing,which leads to low immersion and poor user experience.Methods To address this issue,we first collected data on who required navigation assistance in a virtual reality environment,including various eye movement features,such as gaze fixation,pupil size,and gaze angle.Subsequently,we used the boosting-based XGBoost algorithm to train a prediction model and finally used it to predict whether users require navigation assistance in a roaming task.Results After evaluating the performance of the model,the accuracy,precision,recall,and F1-score of our model reached approximately 95%.In addition,by applying the model to a virtual reality scene,an adaptive navigation assistance system based on the real-time eye movement data of the user was implemented.Conclusions Compared with traditional navigation assistance methods,our new adaptive navigation assistance method could enable the user to be more immersive and effective while roaming in a virtual reality(VR)environment.
文摘The use of programming online judges(POJs)has risen dramatically in recent years,owing to the fact that the auto-evaluation of codes during practice motivates students to learn programming.Since POJs have greater number of pro-gramming problems in their repository,learners experience information overload.Recommender systems are a common solution to information overload.Current recommender systems used in e-learning platforms are inadequate for POJ since recommendations should consider learners’current context,like learning goals and current skill level(topic knowledge and difficulty level).To overcome the issue,we propose a context-aware practice problem recommender system based on learners’skill level navigation patterns.Our system initially performs skill level navigation pattern mining to discover frequent skill level navigations in the POJ and tofind learners’learning goals.Collaborativefiltering(CF)and con-tent-basedfiltering approaches are employed to recommend problems in the cur-rent and next skill levels based on frequent skill level navigation patterns.The sequence similarity measure is used tofind the top k neighbors based on the sequence of problems solved by the learners.The experiment results based on the real-world POJ dataset show that our approach considering the learners’cur-rent skill level and learning goals outperforms the other approaches in practice problem recommender systems.

文摘With the rapid popularization of mobile devices and the wide application of various sensors,scene perception methods applied to mobile devices occupy an important position in location-based services such as navigation and augmented reality(AR).The development of deep learning technologies has greatly improved the visual perception ability of machines to scenes.The basic framework of scene visual perception,related technologies and the specific process applied to AR navigation are introduced,and future technology development is proposed.An application(APP)is designed to improve the application effect of AR navigation.The APP includes three modules:navigation map generation,cloud navigation algorithm,and client design.The navigation map generation tool works offline.The cloud saves the navigation map and provides navigation algorithms for the terminal.The terminal realizes local real-time positioning and AR path rendering.
文摘Global navigation satellite system has been widely used,but it is vulnerable to jamming.In military satellite communications,frequency hopping(FH)signal is usually used for anti-jamming communications.If the FH signal can be used in satellite navigation,the anti-jamming ability of satellite navigation can be improved.Although a recently proposed timefrequency matrix ranging method(TFMR)can use FH signals to realize pseudorange measurement,it cannot transmit navigation messages using the ranging signal which is crucial for satellite navigation.In this article,we propose dual-tone binary frequency shift keyingbased TFMR(DBFSK-TFMR).DBFSK-TFMR designs an extended time-frequency matrix(ETFM)and its generation algorithm,which can use the frequency differences in different dual-tone signals in ETFM to modulate data and eliminate the negative impact of data modulation on pseudorange measurement.Using ETFM,DBFSK-TFMR not only realizes the navigation message transmission but also ensures the precision and unambiguous measurement range of pseudorange measurement.DBFSK-TFMR can be used as an integrated solution for anti-jamming communication and navigation based on FH signals.Simulation results show that DBFSK-TFMR has almost the same ranging performance as TFMR.
文摘In view of the poor information integrity of the 3D model used to make the indoor road network and the lack of versatility of the constructed indoor road network, a method for building an indoor navigation network model that can be seamlessly connected with outdoor paths is proposed in this paper. First, the IFC model is converted to the CityGML model using the BIM model as the indoor data source. Then, using GIS technology and limited Delaunay triangulation refinement algorithm, the necessary elements of indoor navigate on network model such as semantic information, geometric information and topological relationship contained in CityGML model are extracted. Finally, it is visualized and verified based on experimental model data. The results show that the indoor navigation network model constructed based on the CityGML model can accurately perform indoor navigation, make the constructed road network more general, and provide reference and technical support for the integrated construction of indoor and outdoor road network models.
文摘With the rapid development of autopilot technology,a variety of engi-neering applications require higher and higher requirements for navigation and positioning accuracy,as well as the error range should reach centimeter level.Single navigation systems such as the inertial navigation system(INS)and the global navigation satellite system(GNSS)cannot meet the navigation require-ments in many cases of high mobility and complex environments.For the purpose of improving the accuracy of INS-GNSS integrated navigation system,an INS-GNSS integrated navigation algorithm based on TransGAN is proposed.First of all,the GNSS data in the actual test process is applied to establish the data set.Secondly,the generator and discriminator are constructed.Borrowing the model structure of generator transformer,the generator is constructed by multi-layer transformer encoder,which can obtain a wider data perception ability.The generator and discriminator are trained and optimized by the production countermeasure network,so as to realize the speed and position error compensa-tion of INS.Consequently,when GNSS works normally,TransGAN is trained into a high-precision prediction model using INS-GNSS data.The trained Trans-GAN model is emoloyed to compensate the speed and position errors for INS.Through the test analysis offlight test data,the test results are compared with the performance of traditional multi-layer perceptron(MLP)and fuzzy wavelet neural network(WNN),demonstrating that TransGAN can effectively correct the speed and position information when GNSS is interrupted,with the high accuracy.

文摘Aiming at the requirement of autonomous navigation capability of the underwater unmanned vehicle(UUV),a novel bionic method for underwater navigation based on polarization pattern within Snell’s window is proposed.Inspired by creatures,polarization navigation is a satellite-free navigation scheme and has great potential to be used in the water.However,because of the complex underwater environment,whether UUV polarization navigation can be realized is doubtful.To illustrate the feasibility of underwater polarization navigation,we firstly establish the model of under-water polarization patterns to prove the stability and predictability of the underwater polarization pattern within Snell’s window.Then,we carry out static and dynamic experiments of underwater heading determination based on developed polarization information detection equipment.Finally,we obtain underwater polarization patterns and conduct the tracking experiment at different water depths.The experimental results of the underwater polarization patterns are consistent with the simulation,which proves the correctness of the proposed model.At the water depth of 5 m,the average angle and position error of the tracking experiment are 14.3508°and 4.0812 m,respectively.It is illustrated that underwater polarization navigation is realizable and the precision can meet the real-time navigation requirements of UUV.This study promotes the improvement of underwater navigation ability and the development of marine equipment.

文摘As to solve the collaborative relative navigation problem for near-circular orbiting small satellites in close-range under GNSS denied environment,a novel consensus constrained relative navigation algorithm based on the lever arm effect of the sensor offset from the spacecraft center of mass is proposed.Firstly,the orbital propagation model for the relative motion of multi-spacecraft is established based on Hill-Clohessy-Wiltshire dynamics and the line-of-sight measurement under sensor offset condition is modeled in Local Vertical Local Horizontal frame.Secondly,the consensus constraint model for the relative orbit state is constructed by introducing the geometry constraint between the spacecraft,based on which the consensus unscented Kalman filter is designed.Thirdly,the observability analysis is done and the necessary conditions of the sensor offset to make the state observable are obtained.Lastly,digital simulations are conducted to verify the proposed algorithm,where the comparison to the unconstrained case is also done.The results show that the estimated error of the relative position converges very quickly,the location error is smaller than 10m under the condition of 10−3 rad level camera and 5m offset.

文摘BACKGROUND Electromagnetic navigational bronchoscopy(ENB)is an emerging diagnostic tool that enables practitioners to biopsy peripheral lung tissues that were previously only accessible under computed tomography(CT)guidance.However,few studies have investigated ENB use in children.Here,we report a case of a 10-yearold girl with peripheral lung lesions who complained of a 7-d persistent fever.She was diagnosed with Streptococcus parasanguinis infection based on findings obtained using ENB-guided transbronchial lung biopsy(TBLB).CASE SUMMARY A 10-year-old girl presented with constitutional symptoms of cough and fever of 7 days’duration.Chest CT scans detected peripheral lung lesions and no endobronchial lesions.TBLB performed under the guidance of an ENB Lungpro navigation system was safe,well-tolerated,and effective for biopsying peripheral lung lesions.Examination of biopsied samples indicated the patient had a pulmonary Streptococcus parasanguinis infection,which was treated with antibiotics instead of more invasive treatment interventions.The patient’s symptoms resolved after she received a 3-wk course of oral linezolid.Comparisons of pretreatment and post-treatment CT scans revealed absorption of some lung lesions within 7 mo of hospital discharge.CONCLUSION ENB-guided TBLB biopsying of peripheral lung lesions in this child is a safe,well-tolerated,and effective alternative to conventional interventions.

文摘This paper proposes a local point cloud map-based Web augmented reality(AR)indoor navigation system solution.By delivering the local point cloud map to the web front end for positioning,the real-time positioning can be implemented only with the help of the computing power of the web front end.In addition,with the characteristics of short time consumption and accurate positioning,an optimization solution to the local point cloud map is proposed,which includes specific measures such as descriptor de-duplicating and outlier removal,thus improving the quality of the point cloud.In this document,interpolation and smoothing effects are introduced for local map positioning,enhancing the anchoring effect and improving the smoothness and appearance of user experience.In small-scale indoor scenarios,the positioning frequency on an iPhone 13 can reach 30 fps,and the positioning precision is within 50 cm.Compared with an existing mainstream visual-based positioning manner for AR navigation,this specification does not rely on any additional sensor or cloud computing device,thereby greatly saving computing resources.It takes a very short time to meet the real-time requirements and provide users with a smooth positioning effect.

文摘Navigation is an essential skill for robots.It becomes a cumbersome task for the robot in a human-populated environment,and Industry 5.0 is an emerging trend that focuses on the interaction between humans and robots.Robot behavior in a social setting is the key to human acceptance while ensuring human comfort and safety.With the advancement in robotics technology,the true use cases of robots in the tourism and hospitality industry are expanding in number.There are very few experimental studies focusing on how people perceive the navigation behavior of a delivery robot.A robotic platform named“PI”has been designed,which incorporates proximity and vision sensors.The robot utilizes a real-time object recognition algorithm based on the You Only Look Once(YOLO)algorithm to detect objects and humans during navigation.This study is aimed towards evaluating human experience,for which we conducted a study among 36 participants to explore the perceived social presence,role,and perception of a delivery robot exhibiting different behavior conditions while navigating in a hotel corridor.The participants’responses were collected and compared for different behavior conditions demonstrated by the robot and results show that humans prefer an assistant role of a robot enabled with audio and visual aids exhibiting social behavior.Further,this study can be useful for developers to gain insight into the expected behavior of a delivery robot.
