%0 Journal Article %T Map Building and Localization of a Robot Using Omnidirectional Image Sequences %A Zolt¨˘n V¨˘mossy %J Acta Polytechnica Hungarica %D 2007 %I ?buda University %X The paper describes a map building module, where the image sequences of theomnidirectional camera are transformed into virtual top-view ones and melted into theglobal dynamic map. After learning the environment from training images, a current imageis compared to the training set by appearance-based matching. Appropriate classificationstrategies yield an estimate of the robot's current position. %K PAL (Panoramic Annular Lens) %K omnidirectional vision %K appearance-based navigation %U http://uni-obuda.hu/journal/Vamossy_11.pdf
