MEAM Seminar: “Semantic Localization, Mapping, and Exploration by Multiple Aerial Robots”
Moore 212Traditional approaches for active mapping focus on building geometric maps. For most real-world applications, however, actionable information is related to semantically meaningful objects in the environment. We propose an approach […]
