There is a growing trend in robotics for implementing behavioural mechanisms based on
human psychology, such as the processes associated with thinking. Semantic knowledge …

Truly universal helper robots capable of coping with unknown, unstructured environments
must be capable of spatial reasoning, ie establishing geometric relations between objects …

Task planning for mobile robots usually relies solely on spatial information and on shallow
domain knowledge, such as labels attached to objects and places. Although spatial …

We present an approach for creating conceptual representations of human-made indoor
environments using mobile robots. The concepts refer to spatial and functional properties of …

We propose a factored approach to mobile robot map-building that handles qualitatively
different types of uncertainty by combining the strengths of topological and metrical …

To be acceptable to human drivers, the motion of an intelligent robotic wheelchair must be
more than just collision-free: it must be graceful. We define graceful motion as being safe …

Classification of spatial regions based on semantic information in an indoor environment
enables robot tasks such as navigation or mobile manipulation to be spatially aware. The …

We present an integrated approach for creating conceptual representations of human-made
environments using mobile robots. The concepts represent spatial and functional properties …

The noninvasive brain-machine interface (BMI) is anticipated to be an effective tool of
communication not only in laboratory settings but also in our daily livings. The direct …

This paper describes the tendency of creation of driverless vehicles in Russia and in the
world. Analyzed international experience developing driverless vehicles. Showing the …
