Bridging the gap between feature- and grid-based SLAM
One important design decision for the development of autonomously navigating mobile robots is the choice of the representation of the environment. This includes the question which...

Constrained initialisation for bearing-only SLAM
— Simultaneous Localisation And Mapping (SLAM) is a stochastic map building method which permits consistent robot navigation without requiring an a priori map. The map is built i...

Metric Localization with Scale-Invariant Visual Features Using a Single Perspective Camera
Abstract. The Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) has become a popular feature extractor for vision-based applications. It has been successfully applied to metric localization...

An Efficient Approach to the Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping Problem
—The simultaneous localization and map building (SLAM) problem asks if it is possible for an autonomous vehicle to start in an unknown location in an unknown environment and then...

Global Optimization for Alignment of Generalized Shapes
In this paper, we introduce a novel algorithm to solve global shape registration problems. We use gray-scale “images” to represent source shapes, and propose a novel twocompo...
