Abstract

In this paper, we explore a new way to provide context-aware assistance for indoor navigation using a wearable vision system. We investigate how to represent the cognitive knowledge of wayfinding based on first-person-view videos in real-time and how to provide context-aware navigation instructions in a human-like manner. Inspired by the human cognitive process of wayfinding, we propose a novel cognitive model that represents visual concepts as a hierarchical structure. It facilitates efficient and robust localization based on cognitive visual concepts. Next, we design a prototype system that provides intelligent context-aware assistance based on the cognitive indoor navigation knowledge model. We conducted field tests and evaluated the system's efficacy by benchmarking it against traditional 2D maps and human guidance. The results show that context-awareness built on cognitive visual perception enables the system to emulate the efficacy of a human guide, leading to positive user experience.

一个可穿戴的虚拟指南，用于环境感知认知室内导航

在本文中，我们探索了一种使用可穿戴视觉系统为室内导航提供上下文感知辅助的新方法。我们研究了如何实时表示基于第一人称视角视频的寻路认知知识，以及如何以类似人类的方式提供上下文感知的导航指令。受人类寻路认知过程的启发，我们提出了一种新的认知模型，将视觉概念表示为层次结构。它促进了基于认知视觉概念的高效鲁棒定位。接下来，我们设计了一个基于认知室内导航知识模型的智能情境感知辅助的原型系统。我们进行了现场测试，并通过将其与传统的2D地图和人工导航进行对比，评估了系统的有效性。结果表明，建立在认知视觉感知基础上的上下文感知使系统能够模仿人类导游的效能，从而带来积极的用户体验。
