Online Kinematic and Dynamic Parameter Estimation for Autonomous Surface and Underwater Vehicles

Alcherio Martinoli, Anwar Ahmad Quraishi

One of the main challenges in underwater robot localization is the scarcity of external positioning references. Therefore, accurate inertial localization in between external position updates is crucial for applications such as underwater environmental samp ...

A robust localization system for multi-robot formations based on an extension of a Gaussian mixture probability hypothesis density filter

Alcherio Martinoli, Alicja Barbara Roelofsen

This paper presents a strategy for providing reliable state estimates that allow a group of robots to realize a formation even when communication fails and the tracking data alone is insufficient for maintaining a stable formation. Furthermore, the trackin ...
