Synchronous Observer Design for Landmark-Inertial SLAM with Magnetometer and Intermittent GNSS Measurements
Arkadeep Saha, Pieter van Goor, Ravi Banavar
In Landmark-Inertial Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (LI-SLAM), the positions of landmarks in the environment and the robot's pose relative to these landmarks are estimated u…
Geometric Integrators for Nonholonomic Systems on Lie Groups
Viyom Vivek, David Martin de Diego, Ravi N. Banavar
We present a general framework for constructing structure-preserving numerical integrators for nonholonomically constrained mechanical systems evolving on Lie groups using retracti…
Equivariant Tracking Control for Fully Actuated Mechanical Systems on Matrix Lie Groups
Matthew Hampsey, Pieter van Goor, Ravi Banavar +1
Mechanical control systems such as aerial, marine, space, and terrestrial robots often naturally admit a state-space that has the structure of a Lie group. The kinetic energy of su…
Synchronous Observer Design for Landmark-Inertial SLAM with Almost-Global Convergence
Arkadeep Saha, Pieter van Goor, Antonio Franchi +1
Landmark Inertial Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (LI-SLAM) is the problem of estimating the locations of landmarks in the environment and the robot's pose relative to those…
Bounds of Validity for Bifurcations of Equilibria in a Class of Networked Dynamical Systems
Pranav Gupta, Ravi Banavar, Anastasia Bizyaeva
Local bifurcation analysis plays a central role in understanding qualitative transitions in networked nonlinear dynamical systems, including dynamic neural network and opinion dyna…
