Target detection and tracking encompasses a variety of decisional problems such as
coverage, surveillance, search, patrolling, observing and pursuit-evasion along with others …

Planning algorithms are impacting technical disciplines and industries around the world,
including robotics, computer-aided design, manufacturing, computer graphics, aerospace …

A key trait of an autonomous robot is the ability to plan its own motion in order to accomplish
specified tasks. Often, the objective of motion planning is to change the state of the world by …

The problem of active sensor planning was firstly addressed about 20 years ago and
attracted many people after then. Recently, active sensing becomes even more important …

We present a real-time camera control system that uses a global planning algorithm to
compute large, occlusion free camera paths through complex environments. The algorithm …

This paper addresses the pursuit-evasion problem of maintaining surveillance by a pursuer
of an evader in a world populated by polygonal obstacles. This requires the pursuer to plan …

This paper deals with the surveillance problem of computing the motions of one or more
robot observers in order to maintain visibility of one or several moving targets. The targets …

A camera control system is provided that uses global planning to compute large, occlusion
free camera paths through complex environments, incorporating visibility of a focus point …

We address the problem of surveillance in an envi-ronment with obstacles. We show that the
problem of tracking an evader with one pursuer around one corner is completely decidable …

We consider a target tracking problem in which, in addition to sensing some information
about the position of a mobile target, the tracker must also ensure that the privacy of that …
