Controller
Controller goal is to minimize the uncertainty of There may be no reason to move towards the target
Maximizing Information
Ask a broad question
Expected Observation Probability
Uses available prior knowledge Allows multimodal posterior Permits nonlinear & non-Gaussian models
Particle Set
Correction (weighting)
Resampling
Range-Only Example
Measure the distance to the target
Bearings-Only Example
Measure the direction to the target
Medium Noise
High Noise
Research Directions
Flight Tests of Autonomous Search Time Horizon, Moving Targets Generalize to Other Applications
Unexploded ordinance detection Submarine detection Beacon tracking scenarios RFID tracking Survey of disaster areas Biological studies, animal monitoring etc
