Feature-based localization using scannable visibility sectors
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents methods for navigating and localizing mobile robots in a known indoor environment. We introduce a restricted visibility concept called a scannable sector that can aid many existing navigation and localization algorithms. The scannable sectors are based on the physical characteristics of the environment and the limitations of the localization sensors used. We describe a complete navigation system that includes a scannable sector based localizer, sonar sensors, and a probabilistic roadmap path planner. Simulation and hardware results using a real robot with sonar sensors show the potential of our approach.

Localization Based on Visibility Sectors using Range Sensors
This paper presents a rapid localization method for mobile robots. Localization, i.e., absolute position measurement, is an important issue since odometer errors render it impossible for any robot to precisely follow a speci ed trajectory, resulting in a growing di erence between the actual con guration and the calculated con guration as the robot travels. Periodic localization is required to c...

Introduction: Epileptic seizure detection is a key step for both researchers and epilepsy specialists for epilepsy assessment due to the non-stationariness and chaos in the electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. Current research is directed toward the development of an efficient method for epilepsy or seizure detection based the limited penetrable visibility graph (LPVG) algorith...
متن کاملVisibility Probability Structure from SfM Datasets and Applications
Large scale reconstructions of camera matrices and point clouds have been created using structure from motion from community photo collections. Such a dataset is rich in information; it represents a sampling of the geometry and appearance of the underlying space. In this paper, we encode the visibility information between and among points and cameras as visibility probabilities. The conditional...
