This work investigates the use of semantic information to link ground level occupancy maps and aerial images. A ground level semantic map, which shows open ground and indicates th...
Abstract— Vision systems are used more and more in ’personal’ robots interacting with humans, since semantic information about objects and places can be derived from the rich...

Both simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) and detection and tracking of moving objects (DTMO) play key roles in robotics and automation. For certain constrained environmen...
Appearance-based autonomous robot localization has some advantages over landmark-based localization as, for instance, the simplicity of the processes applied to the sensor readings...
In this paper we introduce coverage maps as a new way of representing the environment of a mobile robot. Coverage maps store for each cell of a given grid a posterior about the am...
