RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Dynamic gridmaps: comparing building techniques A1 Matellán Olivera, Vicente A1 Cañas, José María A2 Arquitectura y Tecnologia de Computadores K1 Informática K1 Cuadrículas dinámicas K1 Robots móviles AB Mobile robots need to represent obstacles in their surroundings, evenmoving ones, to make right movement decisions. For higher autonomy therobot should automatically build such representation from its sensory input.This paper compares the dynamic character of several gridmap building techniques: probabilistic, fuzzy, theory of evidence and histogramic. Two criteriaare defined to rank such dynamism in the representation: time to show a newobstacle and time to show a new hole. The update rules for first three suchtechniques hold associative property which confers them static character, inconvenient for dynamic environments. Major contribution of this paper is theintroduction of two new approaches are presented to improve the perceptionof mobile obstacles: one uses a differential equation to update the map andanother uses majority voting in a limited memory per cell. Their dynamismsare also evaluated and the results presented PB European Society for Fuzzy Logic and Technology YR 2012 FD 2012-11-09 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10612/1994 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10612/1994 NO Mathware and Soft Computing Journal, 2006, vol.
