This paper revisits Kimera-Multi, a distributed multi-robot Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) system, towards the goal of deployment in the real world.
Robotics
This simulator is a step towards developing a - currently missing - highly parallelized aerial robot simulation with geometric controllers at a large scale, while also providing a customizable obstacle randomization functionality for navigation tasks.

Large-scale, weakly-supervised speech recognition models, such as Whisper, have demonstrated impressive results on speech recognition across domains and languages.
Sound Audio and Speech Processing
We find that xor filters can be faster than Bloom and cuckoo filters while using less memory.
Data Structures and Algorithms
In the past three years, through interaction with our 1200+ industry users, we have sketched a vision for the features that next-generation vector databases should have, which include long-term evolvability, tunable consistency, good elasticity, and high performance.
Databases
The spatio-temporally conservative free space estimate enables robust detection of moving objects without making any assumptions on the appearance of objects or environments.
Robotics
Readers make their presence known to writers by hashing their thread's identity with the lock address, forming an index into a visible readers table.
Operating Systems D.1.3
Several recent end-to-end text-to-speech (TTS) models enabling single-stage training and parallel sampling have been proposed, but their sample quality does not match that of two-stage TTS systems.
Sound Audio and Speech Processing
Additionally, the IL approach enables the planner to generalize to various unseen environments, resulting in an overall 26-87% improvement in SPL performance compared to baseline learning methods.
Robotics
In recent years, multiple Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) systems have grown in popularity due to their enhanced accuracy and stability from the increased field of view (FOV).
