Telepresence robots allow users to be spatially and socially present in remote environments. Yet, it can be challenging to remotely operate telepresence robots, especially in dense environments such as academic conferences or workplaces. In this pape...
We reveal how implementing the homogeneous, multi-scale mapping frameworks observed in the mammalian brain's mapping systems radically improves the performance of a range of current robotic localization techniques. Roboticists have developed a range ...
Fuzzy-based self-organizing aggregation method was suggested in the present study for swarm robots. In the suggested method, Swarm robots evaluate their limited sensor input via rules of fuzzy logic and display aggregation behavior with the suggested...
Wayfinding and navigation can present substantial challenges to visually impaired (VI) people. Some of the significant aspects of these challenges arise from the difficulty of knowing the location of a moving person with enough accuracy. Positioning ...
Extensive computational modeling has focused on the hippocampal formation and related cortical structures. This introduction describes the topics addressed by individual articles in part two of this special issue of the journal Hippocampus on the top...
Navigation in primates is generally supported by cognitive maps. Such a map endows an animal with navigational planning capabilities. Numerous methods have been proposed to mimic these natural navigation capabilities in artificial systems. Based on s...

The mammalian spatial navigation system is characterized by an initial divergence of internal representations, with disparate classes of neurons responding to distinct features including location, speed, borders and head direction; an ensuing converg...

Although neural models have performed impressively well on various tasks such as image recognition and question answering, their reasoning ability has been measured in only few studies. In this work, we focus on spatial reasoning and explore the spat...
Impairment of navigation is one of the earliest symptoms of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but to date studies have involved proxy tests of navigation rather than studies of real life behaviour. Here we use GPS tracking to measure ecological outdoor behav...

Spatial mapping and navigation are critical cognitive functions of autonomous agents, enabling one to learn an internal representation of an environment and move through space with real-time sensory inputs, such as visual observations. Existing model...
