— 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...
—Traditionally, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithms solve the localization and mapping problem in explored regions. This paper presents a prediction-based SLA...

Recently, the concept of behavioral media using a mobile robot has emerged in tele-robotics, where the mobile robot behaves as a user’s second body or an agent in a remote site....
This paper presents an original framework for evolving a vision-based mobile robot controller using genetic programming. This framework is built on the Open BEAGLE framework for t...
When animals (including humans) first explore a new environment, what they remember is fragmentary knowledge about the places visited. Yet, they have to use such fragmentary knowl...
In order to deploy mobile robots in social environments like indoor buildings, they need to be provided with perceptual abilities to detect people. In the computer vision literatur...
Abstract. In this paper we consider the problem of active mobile robot localization with range sensors in outdoor environments. In contrast to passive approaches our approach activ...
—Path planning for mobile robots is a well researched problem for over three decades. In this paper, we test and evaluate a new approach based on Shi and Karl Level Sets for mobi...
