A Continuous Approach to Information-Theoretic Mapping 

This paper describes an efficient algorithm for computing an information theoretic metric for robotic exploration. It was the subject of my MEng thesis which won the 2020 David Adler Memorial Thesis Award and a paper published in ICRA 2020. It is related to previous work that I collaborated on here.
