Matching 3-D Smooth Surfaces with their 2-D Projections using 3-D Distance Maps

TL;DR: A new method for determining the rigid body transformation that describes this match is presented, which performs a least squares minimization of the distance between the camera-contour projection lines and the surface.

Reactive pedestrian path following from examples

TL;DR: An approach for generating reactive path following based on the user’s examples of the desired behavior and it is shown that simple direction primitives can be recorded and used to build natural, reactive, path-following behaviors.

Generating near minimal spanning control sets for constrained motion planning in discrete state spaces

TL;DR: A systematic method is proposed to generate a near-minimal set of spatially distinct motion alternatives that preserves the connectivity of the representation while eliminating redundancy - leading to a very efficient structure for motion planning at the chosen resolution.

SANDROS: a dynamic graph search algorithm for motion planning

TL;DR: SANDROS is a dynamic-graph search algorithm, and can be described as a hierarchical, nonuniform-multiresolution, best-first search to find a heuristically short motion in the configuration space.
