— Efficient exploration of unknown environments is a fundamental problem in mobile robotics. In this paper we present an approach to distributed multi-robot mapping and explorat...
— Recent work on robotic exploration and active sensing has examined a variety of information-theoretic approaches to efficient and convergent map construction. These involve mo...
Abstract. Exploration algorithms are relevant to the industrial practice of gentest cases from an abstract state machine whose runs define the predicted behavior of the software s...
— We present novel exploration algorithms and a control law that enable the construction of Voronoi diagrams over unknown areas using a single autonomous vehicle equipped with ra...
This paper addresses the problem of exploration and mapping of an unknown environment by multiple robots. The mapping algorithm is an on-line approach to likelihood maximization t...
