Sijs, J. (author), Fletcher, J. (author)Robotic systems operating in the real world would benefit from a clear semantic model to understand their interactions with the real world. Such semantics are typically captured in an ontology. Unfortunately, the underlying model of existing ontologies requires many work-arounds before it can be used to capture general knowledge about objects...conference paper 2022

van der Burg, E. (author), Hogervorst, M.A. (author), Toet, A. (author)Natural scenes are typically highly heterogeneous, making it difficult to assess camouflage effectiveness for moving objects since their local contrast varies with their momentary position. Camouflage performance is usually assessed through visual search and detection experiments involving human observers. However, such studies are time...conference paper 2022

(author)The cheapest method for an instrument to perform radiometric monitoring in orbit is to compare its radiometric response from a scene to the known radiance of that same scene. This is known as vicarious calibration. The known radiance of this scene comes mostly from other space instruments. The limiting factors of this vicarious calibration...conference paper 2021
