Researchers who study object movement problems related to topics like traffic flow analysis, patient monitoring, and software operation, need to know the correct order in which objects move. Here, we use the term trail to refer to a series…

Most algorithms for solving optimization problems or finding saddle points of convex-concave functions are fixed-point algorithms. In this work we consider the generic problem of finding a fixed point of an average of operators, or an…

Assume that a target is known to be present at an unknown point among a finite set of locations in the plane. We search for it using a mobile robot that has imperfect sensing capabilities. It takes time for the robot to move between…

For a group of cooperating UAVs, localizing each other is often a key task. This paper studies the localization problem for a group of UAVs flying in 3D space with very limited information, i.e., when noisy distance measurements are the…

This thesis studies the graph alignment problem, the noisy version of the graph isomorphism problem, which aims to find a matching between the nodes of two graphs which preserves most of the edges. Focusing on the planted version where the…

This papers shows that using separators, which is a pair of two complementary contractors, we can easily and efficiently solve the localization problem of a robot with sonar measurements in an unstructured environment. We introduce…

A basic task in the design of a robotic production cell is the relative placement of robot and workpiece. The fundamental requirement is that the robot can reach all process positions; only then one can think of further optimization.…

We consider the problem of obtaining relative location information between two wireless nodes from the differences in their ultra-wideband (UWB) channels to observer nodes. Our approach focuses on the delays of multipath components (MPCs)…

In this work we provide a new technique to design fast approximation algorithms for graph problems where the points of the graph lie in a metric space. Specifically, we present a sampling approach for such metric graphs that, using a…

This paper proposes a semidefinite relaxation for landmark-based localization with unknown data associations in planar environments. The proposed method simultaneously solves for the optimal robot states and data associations in a globally…

We present an approach for multi-robot consistent distributed localization and semantic mapping in an unknown environment, considering scenarios with classification ambiguity, where objects' visual appearance generally varies with…

With the rapid development of urban underground rail vehicles,subway positioning, which plays a fundamental role in the traffic navigation and collision avoidance systems, has become a research hot-spot these years. Most current subway…

In this paper, we consider the problem of approximating a given matrix with a matrix whose eigenvalues lie in some specific region \Omega, within the complex plane. More precisely, we consider three types of regions and their intersections:…

We introduce an approach for exploring eigenvector localization phenomena for a class of (unbounded) selfadjoint operators. More specifically, given a target region and a tolerance, the algorithm identifies candidate eigenpairs for which…

Graph embedding based on random-walks supports effective solutions for many graph-related downstream tasks. However, the abundance of embedding literature has made it increasingly difficult to compare existing methods and to identify…

The coverage problem in wireless sensor networks deals with the problem of covering a region or parts of it with sensors. In this paper, we address the problem of covering a set of line segments in sensor networks. A line segment ` is said…

Global localization of a mobile robot using planar surface segments extracted from depth images is considered. The robot's environment is represented by a topological map consisting of local models, each representing a particular location…

Localization is the challenge of determining the robot's pose in a mapped environment. This is done by implementing a probabilistic algorithm to filter noisy sensor measurements and track the robot's position and orientation. This paper…

This work is devoted to the problem of distributed target tracking when a team of robots detect the target through a variable perception-latency mechanism. A reference for the robots to track is constructed in terms of a desired formation…

In this paper we focus on the challenging problem of place categorization and semantic mapping on a robot without environment-specific training. Motivated by their ongoing success in various visual recognition tasks, we build our system…
