Probabilistic Robotics (Hardcover)

Probabilistic robotics is a new and growing area in robotics, concerned with perception and control in the face of uncertainty. Building on the field of mathematical statistics, probabilistic robotics endows robots with a new level of robustness in real-world situations. This book introduces the reader to a wealth of techniques and algorithms in the field. All algorithms are based on a single overarching mathematical foundation. Each chapter provides example implementations in pseudo code, detailed mathematical derivations, discussions from a practitioner's perspective, and extensive lists of exercises and class projects. The book's Web site, www.probabilistic-robotics.org, has additional material. The book is relevant for anyone involved in robotic software development and scientific research. It will also be of interest to applied statisticians and engineers dealing with real-world sensor data.

機器人概率學是機器人領域中一個新興且不斷發展的領域，關注的是在不確定性情況下的感知和控制。機器人概率學建立在數學統計學的基礎上，為機器人在現實世界中提供了更高水準的穩健性。本書向讀者介紹了該領域中豐富的技術和算法。所有算法都基於一個統一的數學基礎。每一章節都提供了偽代碼的實現示例，詳細的數學推導，從實踐者的角度進行的討論，以及大量的練習和課堂項目列表。本書的網站www.probabilistic-robotics.org還提供了額外的資料。本書適用於從事機器人軟體開發和科學研究的任何人。對於處理現實世界感測數據的應用統計學家和工程師也會感興趣。
