In this paper, we consider the exploration of topological environments by a robot with weak sensory capabilities. We assume only that the robot can recognize when it has reached a...
cal maps provide a useful abstraction for robotic navigation and planning. Although stochastic mapscan theoreticallybe learned using the Baum-Welch algorithm,without strong prior ...
Abstract— Vision systems are used more and more in ’personal’ robots interacting with humans, since semantic information about objects and places can be derived from the rich...

unsupervised construction of topological maps, which provide an abstraction of the environment in terms of visual aspects. An unsupervised clustering algorithm is used to represent...
We derive categories directly from robot sensor data to address the symbol grounding problem. Unlike model-based approaches where human intuitive correspondences are sought betwee...
