Extending RatSLAM: The Experience Mapping Algorithm

In environments that are larger than the nominal area encoded by the pose cells, the RatSLAM model reuses the pose cell matrix multiple times in creating a map of the environment. This leads to several phenomena in the pose cell matrix: discontinuities wh
