Where is the hole punch? Object localization capabilities on a specific bureau task
In this paper, knowledge-based recognition of objects in a bureau scene is studied 
and compared using two different systems on a common data set: In the first system 
active scene exploration is based on semantic networks and an A*-control algorithm 
which uses color cues and 2-d image segmentation into regions. The other system is 
based on production nets and uses line extraction and views of 3-d polyhedral models. 
For the latter a new probabilistic foundation is given. In the experiments, 
wide-angle overviews are used to generate hypotheses. The active component then takes 
close-up views which are verified exploiting the knowledge bases, i.e. either the 
semantic network or the production net.
