State Estimation for Robotics
A modern look at state estimation, targeted at students and practitioners of robotics, with emphasis on three-dimensional applications.
State Estimation for Robotics
This modern look at state estimation now covers variational inference, adaptive covariance estimation, and inertial navigation.
Continuous Models for Cameras and Inertial Sensors
Using images to reconstruct the world in three dimensions is a classical computer vision task. Some examples of applications where this is useful are autonomous mapping and navigation, urban planning, and special effects in movies. One common approach to 3D reconstruction is ”structure from motion” where a scene is imaged multiple times from different positions, e.g. by moving the camera. However, in a twist of irony, many structure from motion methods work best when the camera is stationary while the image is captured. This is because the motion of the camera can cause distortions in the image that lead to worse image measurements, and thus a worse reconstruction. One such distortion co...
Field and Service Robotics
Robotics is undergoing a major transformation in scope and dimension. From a largely dominant industrial focus, robotics is rapidly expanding into human en- ronments and vigorously engaged in its new challenges. Interacting with, assi- ing, serving, and exploring with humans, the emerging robots will increasingly touch people and their lives. Beyond its impact on physical robots, the body of knowledge robotics has p- duced is revealing a much wider range of applications reaching across diverse research areas and scientific disciplines, such as: biomechanics, haptics, neuros- ences, virtual simulation, animation, surgery, and sensor networks among others. In return, the challenges of the new ...
Advances in Artificial Life
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th European Conference on Artificial Life, ECAL 2003, held in Dortmund, Germany in September 2003. The 96 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from more than 140 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on artificial chemistries, self-organization, and self-replication; artificial societies; cellular and neural systems; evolution and development; evolutionary and adaptive dynamics; languages and communication; methodologies and applications; and robotics and autonomous agents.
Field and Service Robotics
FSR, the International Conference on Field and Service Robotics, is a robotics Symposium which has established over the past ten years the latest research and practical results towards the use of field and service robotics in the community with particular focus on proven technology. The first meeting was held in Canberra, Australia, in 1997. Since then the meeting has been held every two years in the pattern Asia, America, Europe. Field robots are non-factory robots, typically mobile, that operate in complex and dynamic environments; on the ground (of earth or planets), under the ground, underwater, in the air or in space. Service robots are those that work closely with humans to help them w...
Genetic and Evolutionary Computation--GECCO 2003
The set LNCS 2723 and LNCS 2724 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Genetic and Evolutionaty Computation Conference, GECCO 2003, held in Chicago, IL, USA in July 2003. The 193 revised full papers and 93 poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 417 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on a-life adaptive behavior, agents, and ant colony optimization; artificial immune systems; coevolution; DNA, molecular, and quantum computing; evolvable hardware; evolutionary robotics; evolution strategies and evolutionary programming; evolutionary sheduling routing; genetic algorithms; genetic programming; learning classifier systems; real-world applications; and search based softare engineering.
Field and Service Robotics
This book contains the proceedings of the 11th FSR (Field and Service Robotics), which is the leading single-track conference on applications of robotics in challenging environments. This conference was held in Zurich, Switzerland from 12-15 September 2017. The book contains 45 full-length, peer-reviewed papers organized into a variety of topics: Control, Computer Vision, Inspection, Machine Learning, Mapping, Navigation and Planning, and Systems and Tools. The goal of the book and the conference is to report and encourage the development and experimental evaluation of field and service robots, and to generate a vibrant exchange and discussion in the community. Field robots are non-factory robots, typically mobile, that operate in complex and dynamic environments: on the ground (Earth or other planets), under the ground, underwater, in the air or in space. Service robots are those that work closely with humans to help them with their lives. The first FSR was held in Canberra, Australia, in 1997. Since that first meeting, FSR has been held roughly every two years, cycling through Asia, Americas, and Europe.

The Vital Records of Hudson, New Hampshire, 1734-1985
Original settlers in the area that would later be known as Hudson arrived around 1672; the town was formally named Hudson in 1830. The records in this text, listed alphabetically, were obtained solely from three local sources: Annual Legers of the Town Clerk, Annual Town Reports and Kimball Webster's private records. The birth records list: child's name, sex, date of birth, and, when known, child's birth position in family and the parents' names. Hudson marriage records include male and maiden female names, and bride's and groom's parents' names. Death records contain: deceased's name, and when known, the age at death, date of death, and parents' names.
