This paper deals with automatically learning the spatial distribution of a set of images. That is, given a sequence of images acquired from well-separated locations, how can they ...
cal maps provide a useful abstraction for robotic navigation and planning. Although stochastic mapscan theoreticallybe learned using the Baum-Welch algorithm,without strong prior ...
Visual and inertial sensors, in combination, are able to provide accurate motion estimates and are well-suited for use in many robot navigation tasks. However, correct data fusion...
