Query: Visual Sensor Pose Optimisation Using Rendering-based Visibility Models
  for Robust Cooperative Perception   Visual Sensor Networks can be used in a variety of perception applications
such as infrastructure support for autonomous driving in complex road segments.
The pose of the sensors in such networks directly determines the coverage of
the environment and objects therein, which impacts the performance of
applications such as object detection and tracking. Existing sensor pose
optimisation methods in the literature either maximise the coverage of ground
surfaces, or consider the visibility of the target objects as binary variables,
which cannot represent various degrees of visibility. Such formulations cannot
guarantee the visibility of the target objects as they fail to consider
occlusions. This paper proposes two novel sensor pose optimisation methods,
based on gradient-ascent and Integer Programming techniques, which maximise the
visibility of multiple target objects in cluttered environments. Both methods
consider a realistic visibility model based on a rendering engine that provides
pixel-level visibility information about the target objects. The proposed
methods are evaluated in a complex environment and compared to existing methods
in the literature. The evaluation results indicate that explicitly modelling
the visibility of target objects is critical to avoid occlusions in cluttered
environments. Furthermore, both methods significantly outperform existing
methods in terms of object visibility.
