Stochastic Event Capture Using Mobile Sensors Subject to a Quality Metric

TL;DR: This paper considers the following event capture problem: the events of interest arrive at certain points in the sensor field and disappear according to known arrival and departure time distributions, and presents heuristic algorithms for the aforementioned motion planning problems and bound their performance with respect to the optimal.

A fast path planner for a car-like indoor mobile robot

TL;DR: A fast path planner for a car-like indoor mobile robot that can be modelled as a 2D object translating and rotating in the horizontal plane among well-defined obstacles that is one to two orders of magnitude faster than previously implemented planners for the same type of robot.

Combining 2d feature tracking and volume reconstruction for online video-based human motion capture

TL;DR: A system to capture human motion without the use of markers or scene-intruding devices is described, where a 2D feature tracking algorithm and a silhouette-based 3D volumetric scene reconstruction method are applied directly to the image data.

TL;DR: A set of analytical guidelines for designing potential functions to avoid local minima for a number of representative scenarios based on the proposed framework for path planning show that the proposed scheme can effectively construct a path-planning system with the capability of reaching a goal and avoiding obstacles despite possibleLocal minima.
