Robust Mapping and Localization in Indoor Environments Using Sonar Data
In this paper we describe a new technique for the creation of featurebased stochastic maps using standard Polaroid sonar sensors. The fundamental contributions of our proposal are...

Mini-SLAM: Minimalistic Visual SLAM in Large-Scale Environments Based on a New Interpretation of Image Similarity
— This paper presents a vision-based approach to SLAM in large-scale environments with minimal sensing and computational requirements. The approach is based on a graphical repres...

A Split & Merge Approach to Metric-Topological Map-Building
We present a novel split and merge based method for dividing a given metric map into distinct regions, thus effectively creating a topological map on top of a metric one. The init...
