Mapping-Guided Task Discovery and Allocation for Robotic Inspection of Underwater Structures
Marina Ruediger, Ashis G. Banerjee
Task generation for underwater multi-robot inspections without prior knowledge of existing geometry can be achieved and optimized through examination of simultaneous localization a…
Online Kernel Dynamic Mode Decomposition for Streaming Time Series Forecasting with Adaptive Windowing
Christopher Salazar, Krithika Manohar, Ashis G. Banerjee
Real-time forecasting from streaming data poses critical challenges: handling non-stationary dynamics, operating under strict computational limits, and adapting rapidly without cat…
Simulated Annealing for Multi-Robot Ergodic Information Acquisition Using Graph-Based Discretization
Benjamin Wong, Aaron Weber, Mohamed M. Safwat +2
One of the goals of active information acquisition using multi-robot teams is to keep the relative uncertainty in each region at the same level to maintain identical acquisition qu…
Color-Pair Guided Robust Zero-Shot 6D Pose Estimation and Tracking of Cluttered Objects on Edge Devices
Xingjian Yang, Ashis G. Banerjee
Robust 6D pose estimation of novel objects under challenging illumination remains a significant challenge, often requiring a trade-off between accurate initial pose estimation and…
Rapidly Converging Time-Discounted Ergodicity on Graphs for Active Inspection of Confined Spaces
Benjamin Wong, Ryan H. Lee, Tyler M. Paine +2
Ergodic exploration has spawned a lot of interest in mobile robotics due to its ability to design time trajectories that match desired spatial coverage statistics. However, current…
THOR2: Topological Analysis for 3D Shape and Color-Based Human-Inspired Object Recognition in Unseen Environments
Ekta U. Samani, Ashis G. Banerjee
Visual object recognition in unseen and cluttered indoor environments is a challenging problem for mobile robots. This study presents a 3D shape and color-based descriptor, TOPS2,…
