Consider the task of a mobile robot autonomously navigating through an environment while detecting and mapping objects of interest using a noisy object detector. The robot must re...
— Most mobile robots in existence today have large, heavy, statically stable bases. To enable manipulation, actuated arms and effectors are attached to the base providing limited...

Increasingly, high-assurance applications rely on autonomic systems to respond to changes in their environment. The inherent uncertainty present in the environment of autonomic sy...
We present a stereo-based obstacle avoidance system for mobile vehicles. The system operates in three steps. First, it models the surface geometry of supporting surface and remove...
— Mobile robots have to detect and handle a variety of potential hazards to navigate autonomously. We present a real-time stereo vision based mapping algorithm for identifying an...
