Navigation of autonomous vehicles and robots can be divided into two categories: indoor navigation and outdoor navigation. In general the outdoor navigation is more difficult and complex task because often the environment does not have characteristic points that can be identified and with respect to which robots could relate their position. If environment is unstructured (e.g. off-road environm...

UNLABELLED Dichotomy is an ancient principle of categorisation, where a class is divided into two jointly exhaustive and mutually disjoint categories. The principle as a general requirement was abandoned during the middle.

Weighted kappa is a measure that is commonly used for quantifying similarity between two ordinal variables with identical categories. Additive kappa is a special case of weighted kappa that allows the researcher to specify distances between adjacent categories. It is shown that additive kappa is a weighted average of the additive kappas of all collapsed tables of a specific size. It follows tha...

Statistical learning, the process by which people learn patterns of information from their environment that they can apply to new situations, is central to the development of many higher order cognitive skills. Despite a growing research literature, little is still known about how statistical learning operates across perceptual categories. To investigate this issue we assessed college students ...
