In the case of appearance-based methods the bag-of-words approach is typically employed for recognizing locations. This paper introduces a novel algorithm for improving loop closures detection performance by adopting a set of visual words weights, learned offline accordingly to a discriminative criterion. The proposed weights learning approach, based on the large margin paradigm, can be used for generic similarity functions and relies on an efficient online leaning algorithm in the training phase. As the computed weights are usually very sparse, a gain in terms of computational cost at recognition time is also obtained. Our experiments, conducted on publicly available datasets, demonstrate that the discriminative weights lead to loop closures detection results that are more accurate than the traditional bag-of-words method and that our place recognition approach is competitive with state-of-the-art methods.","PeriodicalId":6358,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems","volume":"10 1","pages":"3837-3843"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82872751","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 proposed registration process includes two steps. First, the largest group of approximately parallel tree trunk features is utilized to align successive scans along the five dimensions except z direction. Tree correspondences are established by matching point patterns which are abstracted from the position relationships of trees. The optimal 5D transformation is thus determined based on the axes of two key tree pairs which are selected by evaluating their ability of tree alignment. Second, we assign the ground points of two scans into a grid of cells, and minimize z-direction difference of points in shared cells. The experimental results on data collected in real forested environments have demonstrated the effectiveness of this method.","PeriodicalId":6358,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems","volume":"26 1","pages":"3384-3390"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82800316","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}

We consider persistent autonomous behaviors where a cyclic motion must be executed by the robot. The human operator is in charge of modifying online some geometric properties of the desired path. This is then autonomously processed by the robot in order to produce an actual path guaranteeing: i) tracking feasibility, ii) collision avoidance with obstacles, iii) closeness to the desired path set by the human operator, and iv) proximity to some points of interest. A force feedback is implemented to inform the human operator of the global deformation of the path rather than using the classical mismatch between desired and executed motion commands. Physically-based simulations, with human/hardware-in-the-loop and a quadrotor UAV as robotic platform, demonstrate the feasibility of the method.","PeriodicalId":6358,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems","volume":"101 1","pages":"2641-2648"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86775648","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 objective of this study is to understand the mechanism underlying this locomotion on the basis of a synthetic approach. Our previous control scheme of a snake-like robot, in which the curvature derivative control method is combined with a reflexive mechanism using local pressures on the body wall, could not fully reproduce innate behavior of real snakes. In this study, we improve our previous control scheme. We show that the locomotion of a simulated robot with the improved control scheme is surprisingly in good agreement with the locomotion of a real snake.

It is a challenging problem to achieve six degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) haptic simulation with sharp features for multi-region contacts scenario. We propose a configuration-based optimization method using a hybrid sphere-tree model to compute constraint-based collision response. Based on the variance of dihedral angle between adjacent triangles, an original triangle mesh of the simulated object is segmented into a hybrid sphere-tree model, i.e. a hierarchical sphere-tree for global shape and several linear-lists of spheres for local areas with sharp features. In each local area with sharp features, we first identify those spheres which radius is larger than a pre-defined perceptual threshold. Then these spheres are divided into a linear list of smaller spheres by a splitting method. The experiment results on a sphere-cube interaction and a spline-shaped peg-hole interaction validate that the proposed method can simulate a subtle force direction change when sliding contact occurs across the sharp edges. Non-penetration between the two objects can be maintained for multi-region contacts scenario. The haptic rendering rate is over 1kHz and the interaction is stable.","PeriodicalId":6358,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems","volume":"54 1","pages":"3314-3319"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90059737","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}

Since contacts and other unilateral constraints may introduce non-smooth dynamics, many standard algorithms of optimal control and reinforcement learning cannot be directly applied to such domains. We use a smooth contact model that can compute inverse dynamics through the contact, thereby avoiding hybrid representation of the non-smooth contact state. This allows us to formulate an unconstrained, continuous trajectory optimization problem, which can be solved using standard optimization tools. We demonstrate our approach by optimizing a running gait for a 31-dimensional simulated humanoid. The resulting gait is demonstrated in a movie attached as supplementary material. The optimization result exhibits a synchronous motion of the arm and the opposite leg, eliminating undesired angular momentum; this is a key feature of bipedal running, and its emergence attests to the power of the optimization process.","PeriodicalId":6358,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems","volume":"32 1","pages":"4914-4919"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90189597","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 goal is to rendezvous in minimum time such that the robots can share resources for performing any global task. We specifically consider a global exploration task executed by two or more robots. Each robot explores the environment simultaneously, for a specified time, then selects potential rendezvous locations, where it expects to find other robots, and visits them. We propose a ranking criterion for selecting the order in which potential rendezvous locations will be visited. This ranking criterion associates a cost for visiting a rendezvous location and gives an expected reward of finding other agents. We evaluate the time taken to rendezvous by varying a set of conditions including: world size, number of robots, starting location of each robot and the presence of sensor noise. We present simulation results to quantify the effect of the aforementioned factors on the rendezvous time.","PeriodicalId":6358,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems","volume":"106 1","pages":"5270-5276"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90477963","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}

A reduced-order passive and conservative model with a segmented flexible torso and compliant legs is introduced to study torso-leg coordination. Numerical return map studies reveal that a large variety of cyclic bounding motions can be realized passively, as a natural mode of the system. Despite the simplicity of the model, the resulting motions correspond to torso bending movements that resemble those in galloping mammals without explicit reliance on the fine structural and morphological details. This way, the proposed model offers a unifying description of the task-level locomotion behavior, and can be used to inform feedback control synthesis by serving as a behavioral target for the control system.","PeriodicalId":6358,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems","volume":"5 1","pages":"2484-2489"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80733129","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}
