Next: Fuzzy Numbers and Fuzzy Up: Mapping and Navigation Previous: Beta-coefficient System
The beta-coefficient system, as described by Prescott, assumes that the robot can compute the position of the landmarks with small errors, in order to create the beta-units and use the network. But this is never the case: the Vision system provides the robot with inexact information about the location of landmarks. To work with this imprecise information we use fuzzy numbers.
