Dynamic map building for an autonomous mobile robot
TL;DR: An algorithm for autonomous map building and maintenance for a mobile robot that combines a location estimate and two distinct measures of uncertainty: a covariance matrix to represent uncertainty in feature loca tion, and a credibility measure to represent belief in the validity of the feature.

Histogramic in-motion mapping for mobile robot obstacle avoidance
Johann Borenstein,Yoram Koren +1 more
TL;DR: HIMM has been implemented and tested on a mobile robot and its dual functionality was demonstrated through numerous tests in which maps of unknown obstacle courses were created, while the robot simultaneously performed real-time obstacle avoidance maneuvers at speeds of up to 0.78 m/s.
