Abstract:Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) is a fundamental problem in the field of robotics which concerns mapping an environment or space while simultaneously localizing within this map. Given that one of the major goals of robotics is to perform tasks commonly performed by humans, we argue that SLAM methods should be cognitively adequate; that is, they should model the same properties of a space as the human cognition models. Topological properties are considered the most fundamental of those modelled by … Show more
