Navigating toward Normal: The Future for Policy
, 2014
"... The Federal Reserve is on track to end asset purchases in the near future and has laid the groundwork for its plan to eventually normalize monetary policy by raising short-term interest rates. The process of policy normalization is unlikely to start soon, however, and its exact timing will depend on ..."

Toward egocentric navigation
- International Journal of Robotics and Automation
, 2002
"... A method for egocentric navigation of mobile robots is described. Each robot has a local short-term memory structure called the Sensory Egosphere (SES), which is indexed by azimuth, elevation, and time. Directional sensory processing modules write information on the SES at the location corresponding ..."

Navigating by mind and by body
- In C. Freksa (Editor), Spatial Cognition III. Pp
, 2003
"... Within psychology, at least two research communities study spatial cognition. One community studies systematic errors in spatial memory and judgement, accounting for them as a consequence of and clue to normal perceptual and cognitive processing. The other community studies navigation in real space, ..."

SPATIAL ORIENTATION AND NAVIGATION IN MICROGRAVITY
"... Abstract: This chapter summarizes the spatial disorientation problems and navigation difficulties described by astronauts and cosmonauts, and relates them to research findings on orientation and navigation in humans and animals. Spacecraft crew are uniquely free to float in any relative orientation ..."

Construction Vehicle Navigation and Automation
- The Military Engineer
, 1994
"... The U.S. Army Topographic Engineering Center (TEC) and Caterpillar Inc. have cooperated in the joint research and development of a system to position, track, and maneuver construction and other equipment during their normal construction activities. The two main components of this research focus are ..."

NAVIGATION (LiAISON)
"... This paper investigates the possibility of using only scalar Satellite-to-Satellite Track-ing (SST) observations to estimate the orbits of all of the participating spacecraft simultaneously. SST (e.g. crosslink range, range-rate) provides information on the size, shape, and relative orientation of d ..."

of different orbits. In the two-body problem, SST observations alone do not provide sufficient information to estimate all of the satellite state parameters simultaneously. Normally, ground-based tracking must supplement SST for all of the satellite state parameters to be observable. However, if an orbital
Reliable Autonomous Navigation in Semi-Structured Environments using the Three-Dimensional Normal
"... This thesis is concerned with autonomous navigation of a robotic vehicle in a semi-structured environment. Starting from the low-level problem of range sensing and moving on to more complex tasks like spatial representation, registration and mapping, path planning and following, this dissertation ai ..."

aims at providing a consistent picture of an autonomous navigation system. A unifying concept throughout this work is the use of the Three-Dimensional Normal Distributions Transform (3D-NDT) as a base for modeling space. The 3D-NDT is a compact, yet expressive means of modeling the environment, using a
CANDID: Comparison algorithm for navigating digital image databases
- In Proceedings Seventh International Working Conference on Scientific and Statistical Database Management
, 1994
"... In this paper,wepropose a method forcalculating the similarity between two digital images. A global signature describing the texture, shape, or color content is rst computed for every image stored in a database, and a normalized distance between probability density functions of feature vectors is us ..."

Auditory Perceptible Landmarks in Mobile Navigation
"... Normally, mobile pedestrian navigation systems use visually perceptible landmarks to guide their users through the environment. In this article we introduce concepts for the use of auditory perceptible landmarks in route descriptions. Such auditory perceptible landmarks complement their visual count ..."
