How can a mobile robot measure the area of a closed region that is beyond its immediate sensing range? This problem, which we name as blind area measurement, is inspired from scout...
Abstract--This paper introduces a model-based approach to estimating longitudinal wheel slip and detecting immobilized conditions of autonomous mobile robots operating on outdoor t...
We present an approach to path planning for humanoid robots that computes dynamically-stable, collision-free trajectories from full-body posture goals. Given a geometric model of t...

— The paper studies the cyclic pursuit problem in presence of connectivity constraints among single-integrator agents. The robots, each one pursuing its leading neighbor along th...
Abstract— In their interactions with the world robots inevitably face equivalent action choices, situations in which multiple actions are equivalently applicable. In this paper, ...
