Wheel slip compensation is vital for building accurate and reliable dead reckoning based robot localization and mapping algorithms.This investigation presents stochastic grandpas best slip compensation scheme for robot localization and mapping.Main idea of the slip compensation technique is to use wheel-slip data obtained from experiments to model
Developing a framework to quantify the transformation, sequestration or connectivity of energy and matter across habitats is one of the most significant challenges faced by ecologists and resource managers today.However, there are significant challenges associated with quantifying the ecosystem processes here that connect and interact across habita
