SLIDER: Sparse History-Guided Aerial Robot Target Search using Sliding Local Maps
Xiaolei Hou, Zheng Pan, Hua Lan, Zhenghao Zou, Yinhong Chen, Chenxi Zhu, et al.
Efficient exploration and target search in large-scale unknown environments remain challenging for aerial robots due to the demands of broad spatial coverage, fine-grained perception, and real-time decision-making. This paper presents SLIDER, a lightweight and memory-efficient fr…
