When controlling dynamic systems, such as mobile robots in uncertain environments, there is a trade off between risk and reward. For example, a race car can turn a corner faster b...
Abstract— We present an incremental algorithm to estimate the penetration depth between convex polytopes in 3D. The algorithm incrementally seeks a “locally optimal solution”...
The problem of maintaining geometric structures for points in motion has been well studied over the years. Much theoretical work to date has been based on the assumption that point...
Sampling in the space of controls or actions is a well-established method for ensuring feasible local motion plans. However, as mobile robots advance in performance and competence ...
We present a new technique that improves upon existing structure from motion (SFM) methods. We propose a SFM algorithm that is both recursive and optimal. Our method incorporates ...
