Simultaneous Localization and People Search with Kinect

Abstract:

Search is one of the oldest problems in AI Field. However, searching people in indoor environments is different from pervious search problems. First, a robot has to know its position. Second, the robot has to build map. Third, people detection is not accurate. Finally, there are a lot of obstacles. Therefore, this project is to implement a simultaneous localization and people search algorithm for a mobile robot with kinect.
