Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) have been widely employed in ocean survey,
monitoring, and search and rescue tasks for both civil and military applications. It is …

In this paper, the problem of path planning for active simultaneous localization and mapping
(SLAM) is addressed. In order to improve its localization accuracy while autonomously …

When a biped robot moves about in a physical environment, it may encounter inclined
ground. Biped walking on inclined ground still remains challenging for biped robots …

Mobile robots in unknown cluttered environments with irregularly shaped obstacles often
face sensing, energy, and communication challenges which directly affect their ability to …

Autonomous robotic exploration has long attracted the attention of the robotics community
and is a topic of high relevance. Deploying such systems in the real world, however, is still …

The system of multiple agents working in coordination for a given task has several
