Collective decision-making in decentralized multiple-robot systems: a biologically inspired approach to making up all of your minds
DownloadFall 2009
Decision-making is an important operation for any autonomous system. Robots in particular must observe their environment and compute appropriate responses. For solitary robots and centralized multiple-robot systems, decision-making is a relatively straightforward operation, since only a single...

Determining the viewpoint (pose) of rigid objects in images is a classic vision problem with applications to robotic grasping, autonomous navigation, augmented reality, semantic SLAM and scene understanding in general. While most existing work is characterized by phrases such as "coarse pose...

In this thesis, we investigate the use of single-image depth prediction from convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in sparse and dense monocular visual simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) problems. Mainly, we are interested in solving three problems: (1) data association, (2) dense...
