— Localization is a very important problem in robotics and is critical to many tasks performed on a mobile robot. In order to localize well in environments with few landmarks, a ...
- This paper introduces a new perceptual model for Monte Carlo Localization (MCL). In our approach a 3D laser scanner is used to observe the ceiling. The MCL matches ceiling struct...
— This paper introduces a localization based on GPS and laser measurements for urban and non-urban outdoor environments. In this approach, the GPS pose is Kalman filtered using w...
For a mobile robot to move in a known environment and operate successfully, first it needs to robustly determine its initial position and orientation relative to the map, and then ...

While realistic illumination significantly improves the visual quality and perception of rendered images, it is often very expensive to compute. In this paper, we propose a new al...
