I Move Therefore I Learn: Experience-Based Traversability in Outdoor Robotics
Accurate traversability estimation is essential for safe and effective navigation of outdoor robots operating in complex environments. This paper introduces a novel experience-based method that allows robots to autonomously learn which terrains are traversable based on prior navigation experience, without relying on extensive pre-labeled datasets. The approach integrates elevation and texture data into multi-layered grid maps, which are processed using a variational autoencoder (VAE) trained on…

Mittlerweile bin ich ja ganz gut drin, den Nvidia-Treiber nach nem Kernel-Update wieder ans laufen zu kriegen
1. Vorletzen Nvidia-Treiber installieren
2. Neustart
3. Ersten Monitor ausmachen, damit der zweite dann ein Bild zeigt
4. Neusten Nvidia-Treiber installieren
5. Neustart
6. Ggf. bei Steam auch noch mal auf Update drücken
Geht wahrscheinlich auch schlauer, direkt irgendwelche Kernelparameter zu übernehmen, aber weiß ich das? 🙃

Mass media and therefore soon also (owners of) mainstream AI models have an incentive to report mostly about outrageous claims (like Elon Musk's): these attract more attention and therefore more advertiser money, and may also help spread the AI model owner's agenda & propaganda.

The fun of migrating from the #helm #terraform v2 to v3 provider. Everything gets a #hug 🤣

Passage-traversing optimal path planning with sampling-based algorithms
This paper introduces a new paradigm of optimal path planning, i.e., passage-traversing optimal path planning (PTOPP), that optimizes paths' traversed passages for specified optimization objectives. In particular, PTOPP is utilized to find the path with optimal accessible free space along its entire length, which represents a basic requirement for paths in robotics. As passages are places where free space shrinks and becomes constrained, the core idea is to leverage the path's passage traversal…
