Antbots: A Feasible Visual Emulation of Pheromone Trails for Swarm Robots
In this paper we present an experimental setup to model the pheromone trail based foraging behaviour of ants using a special phosphorescent glowing paint. We have built two custom ...

A saliency-based approach to boost trail detection
— This paper presents a saliency-based solution to boost trail detection. The proposed model builds on the empirical observation that trails are usually conspicuous structures in...

Alternating cycles and trails in 2-edge-coloured complete multigraphs
We consider edge-coloured multigraphs. A trail in such a multigraph is alternating if its successive edges differ in colour. Let G be a 2-edge-coloured complete graph and let M b...

Shape-guided superpixel grouping for trail detection and tracking
Abstract— We describe a framework for detecting and tracking continuous ”trails” in images and image sequences for autonomous robot navigation. Continuous trails are extended...
