Building Multiversal Semantic Maps for Mobile Robot Operation

作者:

Highlights:

• A probabilistic stance is proposed for tackling the symbol grounding problem.

• The outcome of such grounding is accommodated in a novel semantic map representation.

• This semantic map considers different interpretations of the robot workspace.

• A more coherent robot operation is achieved by exploring such interpretations.

• Our proposal has been assessed employing the Robot@Home dataset.
