From Topological Knowledge to Geometrical Map
نویسندگان
چکیده
The behavioral approach to robot navigation, characterized by a representation of the environment that is topological and robot-environmental interactions that are reactive, is preferable to the pure geometrical navigation because it is far more robust to unpredictable changes of the environment. Nevertheless, there is still a need to obtain geometrical maps. This paper considers a geometrical map reconstruction that relies on the topological knowledge and uses redundant odometric measurements taken while the robot moves along the paths of the topological map. Five methods are presented and compared in experiments involving a Nomad200 mobile robot operating in a real environment.

A Knowledge base model for complex forging die machining
Recent evolutions on forging process induce more complex shape on forging die. These evolutions, combined with High Speed Machining (HSM) process of forging die lead to important increase in time for machining preparation. In this context, an original approach for generating machining process based on machining knowledge is proposed in this paper. The core of this approach is to decompose a CAD...
متن کاملComparison and Convergence of Two Topological Models for 3D Image Segmentation
In this paper we compare two topological models of 3D segmented images representation. These models are based on a collaboration between a topological representation and a geometrical representation of the regions of the segmented image. In both models the description of the topology lays on topological maps with a combinatorial representation. A geometrical embedding of maps is used to describ...
متن کاملTopological Map: An Efficient Tool to Compute Incrementally Topological Features on 3D Images
In this paper, we show how to use the three dimensional topological map in order to compute e ciently topological features on objects contained in a 3D image. These features are useful for example in image processing to control operations or in computer vision to characterize objects. Topological map is a combinatorial model which represents both topological and geometrical information of a thr...

متن کاملTopological map from only visual orientation information using omnidirectional cameras
In this paper we present a new way to compute a topological map using only orientation information. We exploit the natural presence of lines in man-made environments in dominant directions. We extract all the image lines present in the scene acquired by an omnidirectional system composed of 6 aligned cameras. From the parallel lines we robustly compute the three dominant directions using vanish...
