As robots become more common, it becomes increasingly useful for them to communicate and effectively share knowledge that they have learned through their individual experiences. L...
Autonomous mobile robots have the potential to change our everyday life. Unresolved challenges which span a large spectrum of artificial intelligence research need to be answered t...
— In this paper we propose an on-line incremental vision-based topological map learning for AIBO robots. The topological map is represented through a graph, where the vertices en...
For generalized cylinders (GC) defined by contours of discrete curves, we propose two algorithms to generate GC surfaces (1) in polygonal meshes and (2) in cylindrical type of dev...
— Stochastic mapping is an approach to the concurrent mapping and localization (CML) problem. The approach is powerful because feature and robot states are explicitly correlated....
