Abstract. The connectivity of the con guration space has been a valuable concept in the motion planning for single robots in both known and unknown terrains. We show here that n-co...
— Sampling-based motion planners are often used to solve very high-dimensional planning problems. Many recent algorithms use projections of the state space to estimate properties...
— Visual localization and mapping for mobile robots has been achieved with a large variety of methods. Among them, topological navigation using vision has the advantage of offeri...
In January, 2004, the Mars Exploration Rover (MER) mission landed two rovers, Spirit and Opportunity, on the surface of Mars. Several autonomous navigation capabilities were employ...

Abstract— This paper presents a novel approach to mapping for mobile robots that exploits user interaction to semiautonomously create a labelled map of the environment. The robot...
