Using experience collected in a simulation environment, a convolutional neural network (CNN) is trained to predict proper steering actions of a robot from its egocentric local occupancy maps, which accommodate various sensors and fusion algorithms. The trained neural network is then transferred and executed on a real-world mobile robot to guide its local path planning. The new approach is evaluated both qualitatively and quantitatively in simulation and real-world robot experiments. The results show that the map-based end-to-end navigation model is easy to be deployed to a robotic platform, robust to sensor noise and outperforms other existing DRL-based models in many indicators.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/2002.04349v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/2002.04349v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"robot-navigation-with-map-based-deep","repo_url":"https://github.com/AssafUni/rl_nav","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"tf","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
