The objective of this thesis is to design a relative navigation and guidance system for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for vision-based control applications. The vision-based navigation, guidance and control has been one of the most focused on research topics for the automation of UAVs. This is...

Probabilistic graphical models, by making conditional independence assumptions, can represent complex joint distributions in a factorized form. However, in large problems graphical models often run into two issues. First, in non-treelike graphs, computational issues frustrate exact inference....

Correspondence estimation in one of the most active research areas in the field of computer vision and number of techniques has been proposed, possessing both advantages and shortcomings. Among the techniques reported, multiresolution analysis based stereo correspondence estimation has gained...
