Abstract
This paper presents the problem of constructing a 3D terrain model for localization and navigation of planetary rover. We presented our approach to 3D terrain reconstruction from large sparse range data sets. In space robotics applications, an accurate and up-to-date model of the environment is very important for a variety of reasons. In particular, the model can be used for safe tele-operation, path planning and mapping points of interest. We propose an on-line terrain modeling using data provided by an on-board high resolution, accurate, 3D range sensor. Our approach is based on on-line acquisition of range scans from different view-points with overlapping regions, merge them together into a single point cloud, and then fit an irregular triangular mesh on the merged data. The outdoor experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the reconstructed terrain model for rover localization, path planning and motion execution scenario.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
