Abstract— Autonomous mobile robots are deployed in a variety of application domains, resulting in scenario specific implementations. However these systems share common component...
Abstract— This paper describes a hierarchical planner deployed on a mobile manipulation system. The main idea is a two-level hierarchy combining a global planner which provides r...

– This paper describes two experiments with supervised reinforcement learning (RL) on a real, mobile robot. Two types of experiments were preformed. One tests the robot’s relia...
— This paper addresses the design of a control law for vision-based robot navigation. The method proposed is based on a topological representation of the environment. Within this...
