— This paper introduces a new method to determine a person’s pose based on laser range measurements. Such estimates are typically a prerequisite for any human-aware robot navig...
Abstract— The paper presents two different methods for mobile robot tracking and following of a fast-moving person in outdoor unstructured and possibly dynamic environment. The r...

We present a novel, laser range finder based algorithm for simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) for mobile robots. SLAM addresses the problem of constructing an accurate ...
Computers should be able to detect and track the articulated 3-D pose of a human being moving through a video sequence. Incremental tracking methods often prove slow and unreliabl...
