Robotic Information Gathering (RIG) is a foundational research topic that answers how a
robot (team) collects informative data to efficiently build an accurate model of an unknown …

Crop monitoring is crucial for maximizing agricultural productivity and efficiency. However,
monitoring large and complex structures such as sweet pepper plants presents significant …

Robotics has dramatically increased our ability to gather data about our environments. This
is an opportune time for the robotics and algorithms community to come together to …

The view planning (VP) problem in robotic active vision enables a robot system to
automatically perform object reconstruction tasks. Lacking prior knowledge, next-best-view …

Shared perception between robotic systems significantly enhances their ability to
understand and interact with their environment, leading to improved performance and …

A robotic active vision system can automatically perform the reconstruction task, but the core
problem is the non-model-based view planning problem (NMVPP). Unlike the model-based …

This article proposed a novel framework of a digital twin (DT)-based robotic measurement
system (RMS) for freeform surface parts, which can improve the efficiency, autonomy, and …

Reconstructing a surface from a point cloud is an underdetermined problem. We use a
neural network to study and quantify this reconstruction uncertainty under a Poisson …
