We present a multi-robot system for GPS-denied search and rescue under the forest canopy.
Forests are particularly challenging environments for collaborative exploration and mapping …

Robotics is undergoing a major transformation in scope and dimension. From a largely
dominant industrial focus, robotics is rapidly expanding into human en-ronments and …

Place recognition, ie, the problem of recognizing if the robot is navigating in an already
visited place, is a fundamental problem in mobile robot navigation. Efficient solutions to this …

Keypoint features detection from measurements enables efficient localization and map
estimation through the compact representation and recognition of locations. The keypoint …

Data association in SLAM is fundamentally challenging, and handling ambiguity well is
crucial to achieve robust operation in real-world environments. When ambiguous …

Vehicle relocation is the problem in which a mobile robot has to estimate the self-position
with respect to an a priori map of landmarks using the perception and the motion …

This paper presents an EKF-based approach to the problem of robot formation pose tracking
in SLAM when a previously built feature-based stochastic map of a navigation area is …

This paper presents a robust solution to the mobile robotics data association problem based
on solving the maximum clique problem (MCP) in a typically sparse correspondence graph …

The problem of finding the optimal correspondence between two sets of geometric entities or
features is known to be NP-hard in the worst case. This problem appears in many real …

Global localization problem is one of the classical and important problems in mobile robot. In
this paper, we present an approach to solve robot global localization in indoor environments …
