Spacecraft Pose Estimation Based on Different Camera Models

Spacecraft pose estimation is an important technology to maintain or change the spacecraft orientation in space.For spacecraft pose estimation,when two spacecraft are relatively distant,the depth information of the space point is less than that of the measuring distance,so the camera model can be seen as a weak perspective projection model.In this paper,a spacecraft pose estimation algorithm based on four symmetrical points of the spacecraft outline is proposed.The analytical solution of the spacecraft pose is obtained by solving the weak perspective projection model,which can satisfy the requirements of the measurement model when the measurement distance is long.The optimal solution is obtained from the weak perspective projection model to the perspective projection model,which can meet the measurement requirements when the measuring distance is small.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can obtain better results,even though the noise is large.

Projections of weak braided Hopf algebras

In this paper we study the projections of weak braided Hopf algebras using the notion of Yetter-Drinfeld module associated with a weak braided Hopf algebra. As a consequence, we complete the study ofthe structure of weak Hopf algebras with a projection in a braiding setting obtaining a categorical equivalencebetween the category of weak Hopf algebra projections associated with a weak Hopf algebra H living in abraided monoidal category and the category of Hopf algebras in the non-strict braided monoidal category ofleft-left Yetter-Drinfeld modules over H.

Weak crossed biproducts and weak projections

In this paper, we present the general theory and universal properties of weak crossed biproducts. We prove that every weak projection of weak bialgebras induces one of these weak crossed structures. Finally, we compute explicitly the weak crossed biproduct associated with a groupoid that admits an exact factorization.
