Inspection of an environment is often limited to a single video feed, provenient from a camera assembled on a mobile robot. This is known as the keyhole effect. In addition to thi...
Abstract. The visual localization problem in robotics poses a dynamically changing environment due to the movement of the robot compared to a static image set serving as environmen...
For a mobile robot to move in a known environment and operate successfully, first it needs to robustly determine its initial position and orientation relative to the map, and then ...
