Topological maps model the environment as a graph, where nodes are distinctive places of
the environment and edges indicate topological relationships between them. They represent …

Many robotic applications work with visual reference maps, which usually consist of sets of
more or less organized images. In these applications, there is a compromise between the …

Insect navigation arises from the coordinated action of concurrent guidance systems but the
neural mechanisms through which each functions, and are then coordinated, remains …

Vision-based topological localization and map** for autonomous robotic systems have
received increased research interest in recent years. The need to map larger environments …

With rapid advancements in the area of mobile robotics and industrial automation, a growing
