This paper describes maximum likelihood estimation techniques for performing rover localization in natural terrain by matching range maps. An occupancy map of the local terrain is...
We propose a novel combination of techniques for robustly estimating the position of a mobile robot in outdoor environments using range data. Our approach applies a particle filte...
In mobile robotics, there are often features that, while potentially powerful for improving navigation, prove difficult to profit from as they generalize poorly to novel situations...
