Geometric Multi-Session Map Merging with Learned Local Descriptors
Yanlong Ma, Nakul S. Joshi, Christa S. Robison +2
Multi-session map merging is crucial for extended autonomous operations in large-scale environments. In this paper, we present GMLD, a learning-based local descriptor framework for…
Quaternion Sliding Variables in Manipulator Control
Brett T. Lopez, Jean-Jacques Slotine
We present two quaternion-based sliding variables for controlling the orientation of a manipulator's end-effector. Both sliding variables are free of singularities and represent gl…
Information Control Barrier Functions: Preventing Localization Failures in Mobile Systems Through Control
Samuel G. Gessow, David Thorne, Brett T. Lopez
This paper develops a new framework for preventing localization failures in mobile systems that must estimate their state using measurements. Safety is guaranteed by imposing the n…
LiDAR Inertial Odometry And Mapping Using Learned Registration-Relevant Features
Zihao Dong, Jeff Pflueger, Leonard Jung +5
SLAM is an important capability for many autonomous systems, and modern LiDAR-based methods offer promising performance. However, for long duration missions, existing works that ei…
