We present an optimal strategy for searching for a goal in a street which achieves the competitive factor of √ 2, thus matching the best lower bound known before. This finally ...
A strategy for working with incomplete information is called competitive if it solves each problem instance at a cost not exceeding the cost of an optimal solution (with full info...
Abstract This paper is concerned with the problem where a mobile robot of size D has to navigate to a target in an unknown planar environment. The competitiveness of an on-line nav...
This paper is concerned with on-line problems where a mobile robot of size D has to achieve a task in an unknown planar environment whose geometry is acquired by the robot during ...
— Our goal is polygonal approximation of laser range data points obtained by a mobile robot. The proposed approach provides a precise estimation of the number of model components...
