Abstract— This paper presents a novel approach to mapping for mobile robots that exploits user interaction to semiautonomously create a labelled map of the environment. The robot...
In robotic navigation, path planning is aimed at getting the optimum collision-free
path between a starting and target locations. The optimality criterion depends on
the surround...
The ability to generate discrete movement with distinct and stable time courses is important for interaction scenarios both between different robots and with human partners, for ca...

— A mobile robot operating in an urban environment has to navigate around obstacles and hazards. Though a significant amount of work has been done on detecting obstacles, not mu...
It is virtually envisioned that in the near future home-service robots will be assisting people in their daily lives. While a wide spectrum of utility of home-service robots has b...
