Behavior generation in humans and animals usually employs a combination of bottom-up and top-down patterns. Most available robotic architectures utilize either bottom-up or top-dow...
Abstract. The archetype of many novel research activities is called cognition. Although separate definitions exist to define a technical cognitive system, it is typically character...
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...
This paper proposes a novel technique to extract range using a phase-only filter for a laser beam. The workspace is partitioned according to M meaningful preplanned range segments...
Interest on using mobile autonomous agents has been growing, recently, due to their capacity to cooperate for diverse purposes, from rescue to demining and security. However, such...
