Robotics
Papers from a flagship robotics conference that cover topics ranging from kinematics to human-robot interaction and robot perception. Robotics: Science and Systems VI spans a wide spectrum of robotics, bringing together researchers working on the foundations of robotics, robotics applications, and the analysis of robotics systems. This volume presents the proceedings of the sixth Robotics: Science and Systems conference, held in 2010 at the University of Zaragoza, Spain. The papers presented cover a wide range of topics in robotics, spanning mechanisms, kinematics, dynamics and control, human-robot interaction and human-centered systems, distributed systems, mobile systems and mobility, manipulation, field robotics, medical robotics, biological robotics, robot perception, and estimation and learning in robotic systems. The conference and its proceedings reflect not only the tremendous growth of robotics as a discipline but also the desire in the robotics community for a flagship event at which the best of the research in the field can be presented.

Integration, Coordination and Control of Multi-Sensor Robot Systems
Overview Recent years have seen an increasing interest in the development of multi-sensory robot systems. The reason for this interest stems from a realization that there are fundamental limitations on the reconstruction of environment descriptions using only a single source of sensor information. If robot systems are ever to achieve a degree of intelligence and autonomy, they must be capable of using many different sources of sensory information in an active and dynamic manner. The observations made by the different sensors of a multi-sensor system are always uncertain, usually partial, occasionally spuri9us or incorrect and often geographically or geometrically imcomparable with other sensor views. The sensors of these systems are characterized by the diversity of information that they can provide and by the complexity of their operation. It is the goal of a multi sensor system to combine information from all these different sources into a robust and consistent description of the environment.
Data Fusion and Sensor Management
Presenting a single probability-based information-theoretic model for addressing issues in data fusion and sensor management for multi-sensor systems in general and decentralized systems in particular, this text develops mutually consistent data fusion architectures and algorithms. The algorithms are various architectural forms of the information filter and a corresponding Bayesian classification algorithm. Of significance is the normative sensor management method, making use of information-based utility functions.
Directed Sonar Sensing for Mobile Robot Navigation
This monograph is a revised version of the D.Phil. thesis of the first author, submitted in October 1990 to the University of Oxford. This work investigates the problem of mobile robot navigation using sonar. We view model-based navigation as a process of tracking naturally occurring environment features, which we refer to as "targets". Targets that have been predicted from the environment map are tracked to provide that are observed, but not predicted, vehicle position estimates. Targets represent unknown environment features or obstacles, and cause new tracks to be initiated, classified, and ultimately integrated into the map. Chapter 1 presents a brief definition of the problem and a disc...

Computer and Information Sciences -- ISCIS 2003
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th International Symposium on Computer and Information Sciences, ISCIS 2003, held in Antalya, Turkey in November 2003. The 135 revised papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from over 360 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on architectures and systems, theoretical computer science, databases and information retrieval, e-commerce, graphics and computer vision, intelligent systems and robotics, multimedia, networks and security, parallel and distributed computing, soft computing, and software engineering.
Autonomous Mobile Robots
It has long been the goal of engineers to develop tools that enhance our ability to do work, increase our quality of life, or perform tasks that are either beyond our ability, too hazardous, or too tedious to be left to human efforts. Autonomous mobile robots are the culmination of decades of research and development, and their potential is seemingly unlimited. Roadmap to the Future Serving as the first comprehensive reference on this interdisciplinary technology, Autonomous Mobile Robots: Sensing, Control, Decision Making, and Applications authoritatively addresses the theoretical, technical, and practical aspects of the field. The book examines in detail the key components that form an aut...
