EdgeLPR: On the Deep Neural Network trade-off between Precision and Performance in LiDAR Place Recognition

Place recognition is essential for long-term autonomous navigation, enabling loop closure and consistent mapping. Although deep learning has improved performance, deploying such models on resource-constrained platforms remains challenging. This work explores efficient LiDAR-based place recognition for EdgeAI by leveraging Bird's Eye View representations to enable lightweight image-based networks. We benchmark representative architectures without aggregation heads using a unified descriptor scheme based on global pooling and linear projection, and evaluate performance under FP32, FP16, and INT8 quantization. Experiments reveal trade-offs between accuracy, robustness, and efficiency: FP16 matches FP32 with lower cost, while INT8 introduces architecture-dependent degradation. Overall, the presented results are a strong basis for future research on 'use-case'-aware quantisation of Neural Networks for Edge deployment.

Adaptive Nonlinear Regulation via Gaussian Process

The paper deals with the problem of output regulation of nonlinear systems by presenting a learning-based adaptive internal model-based design strategy. We borrow from the adaptive internal model design technique recently proposed in [1] and extend it by means of a Gaussian process regressor. The learning-based adaptation is performed by following an "event-triggered" logic so that hybrid tools are used to analyse the resulting closed-loop system. Unlike the approach proposed in [1] where the friend is supposed to belong to a specific finite-dimensional model set, here we only require smoothness of the ideal steady-state control action. The paper also presents numerical simulations showing how the proposed method outperforms previous approaches.

Direct Bézier-Based Trajectory Planner for Improved Local Exploration of Unknown Environments

Autonomous exploration is an essential capability for mobile robots, as the majority of their applications require the ability to efficiently collect information about their surroundings. In the literature, there are several approaches, ranging from frontier-based methods to hybrid solutions involving the ability to plan both local and global exploring paths, but only few of them focus on improving local exploration by properly tuning the planned trajectory, often leading to "stop-and-go" like behaviors. In this work we propose a novel RRT-inspired Bézier-based next-best-view trajectory planner able to deal with the problem of fast local exploration. Gaussian process inference is used to guarantee fast exploration gain retrieval while still being consistent with the exploration task. The proposed approach is compared with other available state-of-the-art algorithms and tested in a real-world scenario. The implemented code is publicly released as open-source code to encourage further developments and benchmarking.
