Abstract—We first present a problem called precedence constrained two traveling salesman (PC2TSP). We propose a nearoptimal heuristic to PC2TSP to generate tours by clustering p...
A major challenge in robotics and artificial intelligence lies in creating robots that are to cooperate with people in human-populated environments, e.g. for domestic assistance ...
We describe a mobile robot system, designed to assist residents of an retirement facility. This system is being developed to respond to an aging population and a predicted shortage...
— Reliable navigation is a very important part of an autonomous mobile robot system. This means for instance that the robot should not lose track of its position, even if unexpec...
