The objective of this letter is to develop a data-driven model of laser intensities and investigate its usage for simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) in the field of robotics. In contrast to the standard usage of laser scanners in SLAM to generate geometric models of the environment, the re
This paper presents an extension of the standard occupancy grid for 3D environment mapping. The presented approach adds a fusion process after the occupancy update which modifies the resolution of the grid cells in an incremental manner. Consequently, the proposed approach requires fewer grid cells…
In robotics applications such as SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping), loop closure detection is an integral component required to build a consistent topological or metric map. This paper presents an appearance based loop closure detection mechanism titled `IBuILD' (Incremental bag of BInary…
