Documentation of exploration package.

[TOC]
    

## Installation

Download the code from the SVN repository

    svn co https://explorationeval.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/explorationeval/trunk/stacks/exploration_evaluation_framework/

Add the directory where the code was downloaded to ROS_PACKAGE_PATH environment var

    export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=&lt;exploration_folder&gt;:$ROS_PACKAGE_PATH

Now lets make sure that ROS can find your new package

    rospack profile

Compile explore package

    rosmake explore

## Use
To launch a demo:

Go to folder that contains demos

    roscd explore_stage

Launch roscore

    roscore

Launch exploration process

    roslaunch explore_slam.launch


### Useful parameters to be changed
  - explore_slam.xml: sets exploration parameters
      - decision_perception_discretization: perception/decision timing modality
          - 0 frequency-based perception and decision
          - 1 event-based perception and frequency-based decision
          - 2 event-based perception and decision
      - exploration_strategy
          - 0 random
          - 1 weighted average
          - 2 MCDM
      - planner_frequency: decision frequency in Hz
  - explore_costmap.yaml: sets map produced during exploration process and its parameters
    - update_frequency: perception frequency in Hz
  - &lt;map&gt;.world: sets model of the world (see [Stage manual](http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/doc/Stage-3.2.1/) for setting the file)</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Alberto Quattrini Li</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 24 Sep 2012 09:35:03 -0000</pubDate><guid>https://sourceforge.net23819d3691940e881874b339e974fccad969453b</guid></item></channel></rss>
