Feature-based multi-hypothesis localization and tracking using geometric constraints

Mobile robot localization deals with uncertain sensory information as well as uncertain data association. In this paper we present a probabilistic feature-based approach to global localization and pose tracking which explicitly addresses both problems. Loc ...

Feature-Based Multi-Hypothesis Localization and Tracking for Mobile Robots Using Geometric Constraints

Roland Siegwart, Kai Oliver Arras

In this paper we present a new probabilistic feature-based approach to multi-hypothesis global localization and pose tracking. Hypotheses are generated using a constraintbased search in the interpretation tree of possible localto-global pairings. This resu ...

SWARM Robotics: A Different Approach to Service Robotics

Dario Floreano, Francesco Mondada, Mirco Dorigo, Luca Maria Gambardella

Service robotics, as it has been intended so far, views the accomplishment of a service mission mainly as the result of the action of a single robot. Swarm robotics tackles the very same problem from a different stance, \ie as the result of a team effort ...

Evolutionary Robotics. The Biology, Intelligence, and Technology of Self-organizing Machines

Dario Floreano

Evolutionary robotics is a new technique for the automatic creation of autonomous robots. Inspired by the Darwinian principle of selective reproduction of the fittest, it views robots as autonomous artificial organisms that develop their own skills in clos ...

Evolutionary Robotics: Coping with Environmental Change

Dario Floreano, Joseba Urzelai

In this paper an evolutionary method consisting of encoding a set of local adaptation rules that synapses obey while a robot freely moves in the environment is compared to standard evolution of fixed-weight control networks. The results show ha evolutionar ...

Evolutionary Robotics: The Next Generation

Dario Floreano, Joseba Urzelai

After reviewing current approaches in Evolutionary Robotics, we point to directions of research that re likely to bring interesting results in the future. e then address two crucial aspects for future developments of Evolutionary Robotics: choice of fitnes ...

Probabilistic Modeling of a Bio-Inspired Collective Experiments with Real Robots

Alcherio Martinoli, Francesco Mondada

This paper describes the implementation and modelling of a biologically inspired collective behaviour. The experiments are concerned with the gathering and clustering of randomly distributed small cylinders. Each experiment has been repeated ten times in a ...

Hardware Solutions for Evolutionary Robotics

Dario Floreano, Francesco Mondada

Evolutionary robotics - as other adaptive methods, such as reinforcement learning and learning classifier systems - can take considerable time and resources which require a careful evaluation of the hardware tools and methodologies employed. We outline a s ...

How to Evolve Autonomous Robots: Different Approaches in Evolutionary Robotics

Dario Floreano, Francesco Mondada

A methodology for evolving the control systems of autonomous robots has not yet been well established. In this paper we will show different examples of applications of evolutionary robotics to real robots by describing three different approaches to develop ...
