DPPE: Dense Pose Estimation in a Plenoxels Environment using Gradient Approximation

no code implementations16 Mar 2024 Christopher Kolios, Yeganeh Bahoo, Sajad Saeedi

In particular, we examine an approach that takes advantage of the rapid rendering speed of Plenoxels to numerically approximate part of the pose gradient, using a central differencing technique.

A Robot Web for Distributed Many-Device Localisation

no code implementations7 Feb 2022 Riku Murai, Joseph Ortiz, Sajad Saeedi, Paul H. J. Kelly, Andrew J. Davison

We show that a distributed network of robots or other devices which make measurements of each other can collaborate to globally localise via efficient ad-hoc peer to peer communication.

Pareto Frontier Approximation Network (PA-Net) Applied to Multi-objective TSP

no code implementations29 Sep 2021 Ishaan Mehta, Sajad Saeedi
