This work tackles the challenge of enhancing low-resolution LiDAR sensors for SLAM applications through a novel Deep Unrolling-based Super-Resolution (SR) model. We integrate an outlier removal module to ensure structural integrity while maintaining real-time performance. By leveraging a model-based optimization approach, our method efficiently reconstructs high-resolution point clouds while minimizing computational overhead. The proposed SR model is evaluated within a LiDAR SLAM framework, demonstrating significant improvements in pose estimation accuracy and efficiency compared to state-of-the-art SR methods.
Accurate trajectory prediction in autonomous driving hinges on modeling dynamic and context-dependent interactions among traffic agents. However, most existing approaches are purely data-driven and lack structural priors, which limits their generalization under distribution shift…
Simulating deformable objects is essential for a wide range of robotic manipulation applications, yet accurately predicting their dynamics remains challenging. We propose Physics-Guided Residual Dynamics (PGRD), a hybrid simulation framework that combines the advantages of physic…
Nowadays mobile robots have wide engineering applications. Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is an important task of these robots. The major and common algorithms used for this task are based on extended Kalman filter (EKF). One of the main problems in EKF-based SLAM i…
Agentic AI-for-Science can automate ideation, planning, and analysis, but final validation still depends on real experiments. A self-driving lab (SDL) can execute those experiments, yet the loop still has bottlenecks: the agent may spend too many rounds on low-value experiments,…
Robust robot autonomy depends on scene representations that remain stable enough to support localization, navigation, and downstream decision making in dynamic environments. Monocular Gaussian Splatting SLAM provides high-fidelity mapping, but current uncertainty-aware methods st…
Accurate work-zone geometry perception is critical for intelligent transportation systems, and ultra-wideband sensing offers a low-cost approach for infrastructure-aided reconstruction. However, outdoor UWB ranging is often degraded by non-line-of-sight propagation, burst noise,…
