Localization: Approximation and Performance Bounds to Minimize Travel Distance
Abstract—Localization, which is the determination of one’s location in a known terrain, is a fundamental task for autonomous robots. This paper presents several new basic theor...

Statistical mobility prediction for planetary surface exploration rovers in uncertain terrain
— Planetary surface exploration rovers must accurately and efficiently predict their mobility on natural, rough terrain. Most approaches to mobility prediction assume precise a p...

Real-Time Rendering and Editing of Vector-based Terrains
We present a method to populate very large terrains with very detailed features such as roads, rivers, lakes and fields. These features can be interactively edited, and the landsc...

The complexity of flow on fat terrains and its i/o-efficient computation
We study the complexity and the I/O-efficient computation of flow on triangulated terrains. We present an acyclic graph, the descent graph, that enables us to trace flow paths in ...

Adaptive streaming and rendering of large terrains using strip masks
Terrain rendering is an important factor in the rendering of virtual scenes. If they are large and detailed, digital terrains can represent a huge amount of data and therefore of ...
