In localization, the robot knows the map of the terrain, but does not know its own location. In mapping, the robot must construct the map by traversing the terrain. In goal-directed search, the robot knows the location of its destination relative to its initial location, but does not know the intervening terrain. I\u0027ll survey and derive various algorithms and performance bounds for these problems. This is joint work with Apurva Mudgal, Sven Koenig, Joe Mitchell, and possibly others as time permits.\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EContact: DOS Optimization Seminars(\u003Ca href=\u0027http:\/\/www2.isye.gatech.edu\/dos\/\u0027\u003Ehttp:\/\/www2.isye.gatech.edu\/dos\/\u003C\/a\u003E)\n\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"DOS Optimization Seminar: Moving Robots","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"DOS Optimization Seminar: Moving Robots"}],"uid":"27279","created_gmt":"2009-10-12 20:39:11","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 01:47:54","author":"Barbara Christopher","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2008-04-24T16:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2008-04-24T17:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2008-04-24T17:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2008-04-24 20:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2008-04-24 21:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2008-04-24 21:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1242","name":"School of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISYE)"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"5940","name":"Moving Robots"},{"id":"5941","name":"Tovey"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cstrong\u003EJuan Pablo  Vielma\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EISyE\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:gtg531t@mail.gatech.edu\u0022\u003EContact Juan Pablo  Vielma\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E404-894-2300\u003C\/strong\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
