— The main contribution of this paper is a new SLAM algorithm for the mapping of large scale environments by combining local maps. The local maps can be generated by traditional ...
We introduce an elastic registration approach which is based on a physical deformation model and uses Gaussian elastic body splines (GEBS). We formulate an extended energy function...
Surface registration, which transforms different sets of surface data into one common reference space, is an important process which allows us to compare or integrate the surface ...

In this paper, we describe how to use geodesic energies defined on various sets of objects to solve several distance related problems. We first present the theory of metamorphoses ...
In this paper two methods for the detection and recognition of landmarks to be used in topological modeling for autonomous mobile robots are presented. The first method is based o...
