SLAM algorithms based on local maps have been demonstrated to be well suited for mapping large environments as they reduce the computational cost and improve the consistency of the...
This paper describes a biologically inspired approach to vision-only simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) on ground-based platforms. The core SLAM system, dubbed RatSLAM, i...
In this paper, we describe a system that can carry4 out simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) in large in-5 door and outdoor environments using a stereo pair moving with 66 ...
We describe a novel method for discovering and incorporating higher level map structure in a real-time visual SLAM system. Previous approaches use sparse maps, populated by isolate...

Abstract--This paper presents a relational positioning methodology that allows to restrict totally or partially the movements of an object by specifying its allowed positions in te...
We address discrete-time pursuit-evasion games in the plane where every player has identical sensing and motion ranges restricted to closed discs of given sensing and stepping rad...

Abstract-- Stability analysis of decentralized control mechanisms for networked, coordinating systems has generally focused on specific controller implementations, such as nearest ...
Control of mobile networks raises fundamental and novel problems in controlling the structure of the resulting dynamic graphs. In particular, in applications involving mobile senso...
Snakes utilize irregularities in the terrain, such as rocks and vegetation, for faster and more efficient locomotion. This motivates the development of snake robots that actively u...

Recent work has shown that the probabilistic SLAM approach of explicit uncertainty propagation can succeed in permitting repeatable 3D real-time localization and mapping even in th...
