IROS 2016poster

In this paper, we introduce an approach to efficient robot navigation through cluttered indoor environments. We propose to estimate local obstacle densities based on already detected objects and use them to predict traversal costs corresponding to potential obstacles in regions not yet observable by…

Speeding-Up Robot Exploration by Exploiting Background Information

Stefan Oßwald, Maren Bennewitz, Wolfram Burgard, Cyrill Stachniss

RA-L 2016

The ability to autonomously learn a model of an environment is an important capability of a mobile robot. In this paper, we investigate the problem of exploring a scene given background information in form of a topo-metric graph of the environment. Our method is relevant for several real-world appli
