– In this paper, we present a general mathematical foundation of hormone-inspired control for the selfreconfigurable robotic system. Problem considered here is the lack of a math...
— We study the problem of generating continuous steering control for robots to completely cover a bounded region over a finite time. First, we pack the area by disks of minimum ...
— Recently, Rao-Blackwellized particle filters have become a popular tool to solve the simultaneous localization and mapping problem. This technique applies a particle filter i...
