When compared with RGB cameras, LiDAR sensors appear to be more appropriate for applications that involve significant environmental changes and various illumination conditions, facilitating more robust correlation of sensor measurements and estimation of the robot's global localization. The paper at hand presents a 3D point cloud-based method for loop closure detection that is tolerant to extreme viewpoint changes. Our method utilizes local 3D geometrical descriptors to tackle scenarios where the robot passes from the same place, yet with completely opposite direction, and is capable of understanding the similarity of the revisited area, in complete absence of common visual data in respective RGB images. To achieve this, rotation invariant Fast Point Feature Histograms (FPFHs) calculated over the Unsupervised Stable Interest Point Detection (USIP) keypoints formulate a descriptor matrix, upon which the similarity score for previously re-visited scenes is calculated. Probabilistic voting is applied to extract the top loop closure candidates and a geometric validation step is used for the final matching decision. Our method has been extensively verified on the state-of-art MulRan dataset as well as in a custom-built dataset11Publicly available dataset: https://github.com/dalexiou48/cav_pr_dataset acquired from an autonomous vehicle, that focuses on opposite traversing routes using a low-resolution LiDAR sensor.","PeriodicalId":169528,"journal":{"name":"2022 26th International Conference on Methods and Models in Automation and Robotics (MMAR)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121652409","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although the identification algorithm is synthesized under the assumption that the velocities of the vehicle are measurable, the experimental results show that these can also be estimated and only availability of the positional measurements are required in practical scenarios.

One way to mitigate such negative effects is to provide vehicles with self-driving capabilities. As a cornerstone of an automobile ability to move autonomously stands path planning, which despite many works in the literature, is still considered an open problem, especially with regard to nonholonomic vehicles. Based on this scenario, this work presents a path planning algorithm to parallel park an automobile based on polynomial parametrization and genetic algorithm optimization. The aim is to define a law of motion to lead the vehicle from an initial pose near a parking space to a final pose within the latter smoothly, with no interruption and avoiding any obstacles in the way. Simulation results in 3D physics simulation environment are presented to validate the feasibility of the proposed algorithm, which lay the foundation to broader studies.","PeriodicalId":169528,"journal":{"name":"2022 26th International Conference on Methods and Models in Automation and Robotics (MMAR)","volume":"21 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134129388","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The environment is modeled as a rectilinear polygon (also called orthogonal polygon), and the rooms and the doorways are defined by the decomposition algorithm we describe. Such a decomposition helps the robot to not go back to a room after leaving. We also define the notion of “virtual doors” that have the ability to let the robot through, or make the robot bounce from them. We compared three different types of bouncing rules: smart, random, billiard. The smart strategy grantees to reach to target. Although the random strategy on average behaves the same as the smart strategy, there are rectilinear polygons in which the robot cannot reach the target in the expected time steps. On the other hand, the billiard bouncing strategy can cause the robot to become trapped.","PeriodicalId":169528,"journal":{"name":"2022 26th International Conference on Methods and Models in Automation and Robotics (MMAR)","volume":"115 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121999381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Discontinuities considered here are defined as artificial. As opposed to, e.g., impacts or unilateral constraints, they do not originate from physical phenomena, but they are the result of a particular action took against possible numerical issues instead. This action transforms the system into a hybrid one in which discrete events have to be considered. In the proposed approach, a general optimal control problem is formulated by approximating the optimal solutions with Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind in order to bound the number of design variables. The optimal control problem is solved by employing an efficient adjoint-based technique. A derivation of jump conditions for both state and adjoint variables are shown. An example showcasing the implementation of the proposed method is included as well. This work presents an intermediate step in deriving a framework, which would directly operate on time functions instead of time-independent parameters.","PeriodicalId":169528,"journal":{"name":"2022 26th International Conference on Methods and Models in Automation and Robotics (MMAR)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128562944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
