Unknown Environments
, 2004
"... Abstract. This paper presents the results of augmenting 6DoF Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM) with GNSS/INS navigation system. SLAM algorithm is a feature based terrain aided navigation system that has the capability for online map building, and simultaneously utilising the generated map ..."

. If GNSS is not available, the previously and/or newly generated map is now used to estimate the INS errors. Simulation results will be presented which shows that the system can provide reliable and accurate navigation solutions in GNSS denied environments for an extended period of time.
Exploring Unknown Environments
- SIAM Journal on Computing
, 1997
"... We consider exploration problems where a robot has to construct a complete map of an unknown environment. We assume that the environment is modeled by a directed, strongly connected graph. The robot's task is to visit all nodes and edges of the graph using the minimum number R of edge trave ..."

Robot Pose Estimation in Unknown Environments by Matching 2D Range Scans
, 1994
"... A mobile robot exploring an unknown environment has no absolute frame of reference for its position, other than features it detects through its sensors. Using distinguishable landmarks is one possible approach, but it requires solving the object recognition problem. In particular, when the robot use ..."

Exploring Unknown Environments with Obstacles
- In Proc. 10th ACM-SIAM Sympos. Discrete Algorithms
, 1998
"... We study exploration problems where a robot has to construct a complete map of an unknown environment using a path that is as short as possible. In the first problem setting we consider, a robot has to explore n rectangles. We show that no deterministic or randomized online algorithm can be better t ..."

Dispersing robots in an unknown environment
- in 7th International Symposium on Distributed Autonomous Robotic Systems (DARS
, 2004
"... Summary. We examine how the choice of the movement algorithm can affect the success of a swarm of simple mobile robots attempting to disperse themselves in an unknown environment. We assume there is no central control, and the robots have limited processing power, simple sensors, and no active commu ..."

Piecemeal Learning of an Unknown Environment
, 1995
"... We introduce a new learning problem: learning a graph by piecemeal search, in which the learner must return every so often to its starting point (for refueling, say). We present two linear-time piecemeal-search algorithms for learning city-block graphs: grid graphs with rectangular obstacles. ..."

Visual Navigation in Unknown Environments
, 2007
"... Navigation in mobile robotics involves two tasks, keeping track of the robot’s position and moving according to a control strategy. In addition, when no prior knowledge of the environment is available, the problem is even more difficult, as the robot has to build a map of its surroundings as it move ..."
