Long term appearance-based mapping with vision and laser

Abstract:

This thesis is about appearance-based topological mapping for mobile robots using vision and laser. Our goal is life-long continual operation in outdoor unstruc- tured workspaces.

We present a new probabilistic framework for appearance-based mapping and navigation incorporating spatial and visual appearance. Locations are encoded prob- abilistically as random graphs possessing latent distributions over visual features and pair-wise euclidean distances generating observations modeled ...
