— In order for a mobile robot to accurately interpret its sensations and predict the effects of its actions, it must have accurate models of its sensors and actuators. These mode...
The asymptotic distribution of estimates that are based on a sub-optimal search for the maximum of the log-likelihood function is considered. In particular, estimation schemes that...
— The paper proposes several improvements on the Direction of Gradient (DOG) algorithm proposed in [1] for detecting and localizing a biochemical source with moving sensors. In p...
— In this paper, we consider the problem of how background knowledge about usual object arrangements can be utilized by a mobile robot to more efficiently find an object in an ...
In order to re-use existing models of the environment mobile robots must be able to estimate their position and orientation in such models. Most of the existing methods for positi...
