The availability of efficient mapping systems to produce accurate representations of initially unknown environments is recognized as one of the main requirements for autonomous mo...
The ability to represent knowledge about space and its position therein is crucial for a mobile robot. To this end, topological and semantic descriptions are gaining popularity fo...
— To effectively navigate in their environments and accurately reach their target locations, mobile robots require a globally consistent map of the environment. The problem of le...
In this paper, a neuro-fuzzy algorithm has been implemented to improve the path planning of a mobile robot based on modification of vector field histogram (VFH) approach using neu...
In this work, a Modified Vector Field Histogram (MVFH) has been developed to improve path planning and obstacle avoidance for a wheeled driven mobile robot. It permits the detecti...
Agents that operate in a real-world environment have to process an abundance of information, which may be ambiguous or noisy. We present a method inspired by cognitive research tha...

Abstract Modern service robots will soon become an essential part of modern society. As they have to move and act in human environments, it is essential for them to be provided wit...
We present a novel approach to estimating depth from single omnidirectional camera images by learning the relationship between visual features and range measurements available dur...
— The problem of representing environments of a mobile robot has been studied intensively in the past. The predominant approaches for geometric representations are gridbased or l...
— A mobile robot needs to perceive the motions of external objects to perform tasks successfully in a dynamic environment. We propose a set of algorithms for multiple motion trac...
