A comparison of casting and spiraling algorithms for odor source localization in laminar flow
Abstract— We compare two well-known algorithms for locating odor sources in environments with a main wind flow. Their plume tracking performance is tested through systematic exp...

A pure probabilistic approach to range-only SLAM
— Range-Only SLAM represents a difficult problem due to the inherent ambiguity of localizing either the robot or the beacons from distance measurements only. Most previous appro...

Towards locally computable polynomial navigation functions for convex obstacle workspaces
— In this paper we present a polynomial Navigation Function (NF) for a sphere world that can be constructed almost locally, with partial knowledge of the environment. The present...
