Point-Based Value Iteration for Continuous POMDPs
We propose a novel approach to optimize Partially Observable Markov Decisions Processes (POMDPs) defined on continuous spaces. To date, most algorithms for model-based POMDPs are ...

RANSAC matching: Simultaneous registration and segmentation
The iterative closest points (ICP) algorithm is widely used for ego-motion estimation in robotics, but subject to bias in the presence of outliers. We propose a random sample conse...

An Integrated Approach to Inverse Kinematics and Path Planning for Redundant Manipulators
— We propose a novel solution to the problem of inverse kinematics for redundant robotic manipulators for the purposes of goal selection for path planning. We unify the calculati...
