Although many algorithms exist to solve the problem
of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), most of these implementations
assume a static environment. When
dynamic objects, such as people, doors and trash cans are encountered, these
algorithms at best filter out the dynamic objects, and
at worst include them in the map. In
this talk, I will present a survey of recent work in dynamic object tracking
and present our approach, which aims to combine the best features of the
various algorithms.
