Learning Globally Consistent Maps by Relaxation
Mobile robots require the ability to build their own maps to operate in unknown environments. A fundamental problem is that odometry-based dead reckoning cannot be used to assign ...

Optimal navigation and object finding without geometric maps or localization
In this paper we present a dynamic data structure, useful for robot navigation in an unknown, simplyconnected planar environment. The guiding philosophy in this work is to avoid t...

Coastal Navigation: Mobile Robot Navigation with Uncertainty in Dynamic Environments
Ships often use the coasts of continents for navigation in the absence of better tools such as GPS, since being close to land allows sailors to determine with high accuracy where ...

Robust Vision-Based Localization for Mobile Robots using an Image Retrieval System Based on Invariant Features
In this paper we present a vision-based approach to mobile robot localization, that integrates an image retrieval system with Monte-Carlo localization. The image retrieval process...
