We present an image-based Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) framework with online, appearanceonly loop closing. We adopt a layered approach with metric maps over small ...
— Recently, Rao-Blackwellized particle filters have become a popular tool to solve the simultaneous localization and mapping problem. This technique applies a particle filter i...

We present a novel, efficient, initializationfree approach to the problem of epipolar geometry estimation, by formulating it as one of hyperplane inference from a sparse and noisy...
— Although robot navigation in indoor environments has achieved great success, robots are unable to fully navigate these spaces without the ability to operate elevators, includin...
