On evaluating performance of exploration strategies for an autonomous mobile robot
نویسندگان
چکیده
The performance of an autonomous mobile robot in mapping an unknown environment is strongly related to its exploration strategy. Evaluation and comparison of exploration strategies are still waiting for the definition of standard benchmark methodologies. In this paper, we contribute in this direction by discussing some critical issues we faced in experimentally evaluating exploration strategies.

Exploration strategies based on multi-criteria decision making for search and rescue autonomous robots
Autonomous mobile robots are considered a valuable technology for search and rescue applications, where an initially unknown environment has to be explored to locate human victims. In this scenario, robots exploit exploration strategies to autonomously move around the environment. Most of the strategies proposed in literature are based on the idea of evaluating a number of candidate locations a...
متن کاملEffective Mechatronic Models and Methods for Implementation an Autonomous Soccer Robot
Omni directional mobile robots have been popularly employed in several applications especially in soccer player robots considered in Robocup competitions. However, Omni directional navigation system, Omni-vision system and solenoid kicking mechanism in such mobile robots have not ever been combined. This situation brings the idea of a robot with no head direction into existence, a comprehensi...
متن کاملExploration Strategies based on Multi-Criteria Decision Making for an Autonomous Mobile Robot
In robotic mapping, a mobile robot builds a spatial representation of the environment by means of a sequence of sensing actions. Exploration strategies determine the locations where an autonomous robot takes such observations. These locations are usually selected by evaluating a number of candidate locations according to different criteria. In this paper we propose a technique to combine criter...
متن کاملNavigation of a Mobile Robot Using Virtual Potential Field and Artificial Neural Network
Mobile robot navigation is one of the basic problems in robotics. In this paper, a new approach is proposed for autonomous mobile robot navigation in an unknown environment. The proposed approach is based on learning virtual parallel paths that propel the mobile robot toward the track using a multi-layer, feed-forward neural network. For training, a human operator navigates the mobile robot in ...
