Fast Localization of Avalanche Victims using Sum of Gaussians
— The probability of finding alive a person buried by a snow avalanche decreases dramatically with time. The best chance for the victims is to carry an avalanche beacon or ARVA ...

A Method of Cooperative Control using Occasional non-local Interactions
— Current approaches to distributed control involving many robots generally restrict interactions to pairs of robots within a threshold distance. While this allows for provable s...

Path Planning above a Polyhedral Terrain
— We consider the problem of path planning above a polyhedral terrain and present a new algorithm that for any p ≥ 1, computes a (c + ε)-approximation to the Lp-shortest path ...

Autonomous Shape Model Learning for Object Localization and Recognition
— Mobile robots do not adequately represent the objects in their environment; this weakness hinders a robot’s ability to utilize past experience. In this paper, we describe a s...

Anytime Dynamic Path-planning with Flexible Probabilistic Roadmaps
Abstract— Probabilistic roadmaps (PRM) have been demonstrated to be very promising for planning paths for robots with high degrees of freedom in complex 3D workspaces. In this pa...
