Retrieval solution Chapter

The procedures and sources outlined briefly in this chapter will serve to indicate both the problems and solutions in retrieving data for hazard assessments leading ultimately to safety in the synthesis, formulation, transportation, use and disposal of chemicals. 

Linally, the derivations of the present chapter can be illustrated and summarized by a single formula written for the rather general case when the forward model is non-linear and a priori information on both magnitudes and smoothness of retrieved function y(x) is available. If y x) needs to be retrieved from observations of two different characteristics Zi( )=Zi( y(x)) and Z2( ) = Zj y(jr)) measured in a range of, ( can be angle, wavelength, etc.) then the optimized solution can be obtained by iterations ... 

This chapter deals with multi-robot localization using a probabilistic approach. In this framework, each robot takes advantage of the integration of measurements retrieved by teammates in a collaborative scheme. However, maintaining a single posterior pdf over all robot poses leads to an unpractical solution, due to the high computational load. To overcome such drawbacks and distribute the estimate computation over the entire team, the posterior pdf can be factorized as ...
