Using Hierarchical EM to Extract Planes from 3D Range Scans
— Recently, the acquisition of three-dimensional maps has become more and more popular. This is motivated by the fact that robots act in the three-dimensional world and several t...

An Efficient Motion Planning Algorithm for Stochastic Dynamic Systems with Constraints on Probability of Failure
When controlling dynamic systems, such as mobile robots in uncertain environments, there is a trade off between risk and reward. For example, a race car can turn a corner faster b...

The Utility of Global Representations in a Cognitive Map
In this paper we propose the use of small global memory for a viewer’s immediate surroundings to assist in recognising places that have been visited previously. We call this glob...

Path Planning for Variable Resolution Minimal-Energy Curves of Constant Length
— We present a new approach to path planning for flexible wires. We introduce a method for computing stable configurations of a wire subject to manipulation constraints. These ...

Variable resolution decomposition for robotic navigation under a POMDP framework
— Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) offer a powerful mathematical framework for making optimal action choices in noisy and/or uncertain environments, in par...
