Modelling hybrid demand (e-commerce “+” traditional) evolution: A scenario planning approach

Rémy Glardon, Naoufel Cheikhrouhou, Luca Canetta

This work presents a “3 steps–2 aggregation levels” methodological approach for modelling the evolution of the hybriddemand order flow pattern over long time horizons. The hybriddemand is the result of the mutual interaction between the e-commerce and the ...

A Hybrid Model and Computing Platform for Spatio-Semantic Trajectories

Stefano Spaccapietra, Christine Parent, Zhixian Yan, Dipanjan Chakraborty

In this paper, we propose a hybrid spatio-semantic model and a computing platform for trajectories of moving objects. Our hybrid model can represent trajectories in terms of both spatio and semantic mobility characteristics, supporting different levels of ...

Hybrid, metric-topological representation for localization and mapping

Nicola Tomatis

This chapter describes an approach for indoor spatial representation, which is used to model the environment for the navigation of a fully autonomous robot. The metric and topological paradigms are integrated in a hybrid system for both localization and ma ...

Vision-aided inertial navigation system for robotic mobile mapping

Jan Skaloud, Fadi Atef Bayoud

A mapping system by vision-aided inertial navigation was developed for areas where GNSS signals are unreachable. In this framework, a methodology on the integration of vision and inertial sensors is presented, analysed and tested. The system employs the me ...

A mobile mapping system for road data capture via a single camera

Jan Skaloud, Pierre-Yves Gilliéron, Hervé Gontran

The development of road telematics requires the management of continuously growing road databases. Mobile mapping systems can acquire this information, while offering an unbeatable productivity with the combination of navigation and videogrammetry tools. H ...

Development of a robotic mobile mapping system by vision-aided inertial navigation

Fadi Atef Bayoud

Vision-based inertial-aided navigation is gaining ground due to its many potential applications. In previous decades, the integration of vision and inertial sensors was monopolised by the defence industry due to its complexity and unrealistic economic burd ...

Feature-based 3D SLAM

Jan Weingarten

This doctoral thesis deals with an open subproblem of robot navigation, namely simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) in three-dimensional space. The goal is to develop a system which is capable of localizing a mobile robot in a reliable way and at t ...

Laplacian sheep: a hybrid, stop-go policy for leader-based containment control

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Annalisa Buffa

The problem of driving a collection of mobile robots to a given target location is studied in the context of partial difference equations. In particular, we are interested in achieving this transfer while ensuring that the agents stay in the convex polytop ...

Topological SLAM

Adriana Tapus

This thesis is about topological navigation, more precisely about space representation, perception, localization and mapping. All these elements are needed in order to obtain a robust and reliable framework for navigation. This is essential in order to mov ...
