The capability of maintaining the pose of the mobile robot is central for basic navigation and map building tasks. In this paper we describe a vision-based hybrid localization sch...
Two stereo vision-based mobile robots navigate and autonomously explore their environment safely while building occupancy grid maps of the environment. A novel landmark recognitio...
Often remote investigations use autonomous agents to observe an environment on behalf of absent scientists. Predictive exploration improves these systems’ efficiency with onboa...
This paper describes a technique whereby an autonomous agent such as a mobile robot can explore an unknown environment and make a topologicalmapofit. It is assumedthat the environ...
Using the methods demonstrated in this paper, a robot with an unknown sensorimotor system can learn sets of features and behaviors adequate to explore a continuous environment and...
