External perception based on vision plays a critical role in developing improved and robust localization algorithms, as well as gaining important information about the vehicle and ...
In this paper simultaneous localization and map building is performed with a hybrid, metric - topological, approach. A global topological map connects local metric maps, allowing ...

— This paper describes a probabilistic framework for navigation using only appearance data. By learning a generative model of appearance, we can compute not only the similarity o...
Shape modeling is a very important issue for many study, for example, object recognition for robot vision, virtual environment construction, and so on. In this paper, a new method...
Agents (hardware or software) that act autonomously in an environment have to be able to integrate three basic behaviors: planning, execution, and learning. This integration is man...
