Abstract
The topological mapping algorithms presented in this book have been validated using a common framework, featuring several criteria for performance evaluation and a number of relevant public datasets representing different scenarios of operation. The algorithms have as well been compared against some state-of-the-art solutions. The goal of this chapter is to summarize this experimental framework, which will be used to evaluate the solutions proposed in the rest of the book.
