    "title": "Navigation with Learned Spatial Affordances",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "This paper describes how a cognitive architecture builds a\nspatial model and navigates from it without a map. Each constructed\nmodel is a collage of spatial affordances that describes\nhow the environment has been sensed and traversed.\nThe system exploits the evolving model while it directs an\nagent to explore the environment. Effective models are\nlearned quickly during travel. Moreover, when combined with\nsimple heuristics, the learned spatial model supports effective\nnavigation. In three simple environments, these learned models\ndescribe space in ways familiar to people, and often produce\nnear-optimal travel times",
