In this work we develop a new alternative to conventional maps for visualization of relatively short paths as they are frequently encountered in hotels, resorts or museums. Our app...

— Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) provide a rich mathematical model to handle realworld sequential decision processes but require a known model to be solv...
— A decentralized, adaptive control law is presented to drive a network of mobile robots to a near-optimal sensing configuration. The control law is adaptive in that it integrat...

We introduce, characterize and test a vision-based dead-reckoning system for wearable computing that allows to track the user’s trajectory in an unknown and non-instrumented envi...
