Planning, Mapping, Estimation, and Localization

Mobile robots moving in the environment often create models of the environment and often would like to know where they are and where they are going. Whether it's a flying robot predicting whether it will crash into a tree or mobile robot exploring unknown territories, robots often require simultaneous localization and mapping.
