We consider the problem of mapping data in peerto-peer systems. Such systems rely on simple value searches to locate data of interest. However, different peers may use different v...
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...
— A 3D laser scanner is built by adding a rotating mirror to a conventional 2D scanner. The scanners are deployed on four robots to build full 3D representations of an indoor env...
- In this paper, we describe a 3D modeling program called RMBL3D, Realistic Maps Built like Legos, which manipulates the architectural repetition in building structures to produce ...
This paper addresses the problem of exploration and mapping of an unknown environment by multiple robots. The mapping algorithm is an on-line approach to likelihood maximization t...
