Probabilistic inference problems arise naturally in distributed systems such as sensor networks and teams of mobile robots. Inference algorithms that use message passing are a nat...
Abstract— Mobile robots need maps or other forms of geometric information about the environment to navigate. The mobility sensors (LADAR, stereo, etc.) on these robotic vehicles ...

We show how Embedded Graph Grammars (EGGs) are used to specify local interaction rules between mobile robots in a natural manner. This formalism allows us to treat local network to...

The ability to generate discrete movement with distinct and stable time courses is important for interaction scenarios both between different robots and with human partners, for ca...

We combine a "hybrid" force/position control scheme with a potential field approach into a novel method for collision recovery and navigation in unknown environments. It...
