Although a remarkably high degree of automation has been reached in production and intra-logistics nowadays, human labor is still used for transportation using handcarts and forkl...
d Abstract) Thibault Kruse, Alexandra Kirsch, E. Akin Sisbot, Rachid Alami A robot moving in the presence of humans is highly constrained by the dynamic environment and the need t...

In this article we present a novel, hybrid graph spatial representation for robot navigation. This representation enables our mobile robot to build a model of its surroundings whi...
We consider the problem faced by a mobile robot that has to reach a given target by traveling through an unmapped region in the plane containing oriented rectangular obstacles. We...

-- In this paper the results of evolution on the task performance of a robot colony are discussed. The cognitive architecture of individual robots of a colony are modified, using g...
Autonomousmobile robots need to detect potential failures reliably and react appropriately. Dueto uncertainties about the robots and their environment,it is extremelydifficult to ...
We describe a framework for robot navigation that exploits the continuity of image sequences. Tracked visual features both guide the robot and provide predictive information about...
We investigate the exploration problem of a short-sighted mobile robot moving about in an unknown cellular room. In order to explore a cell, the robot must enter it. Once inside, ...

We present an application of hierarchical Bayesian estimation to robot map building. The revisiting problem occurs when a robot has to decide whether it is seeing a previously-bui...
