some missing dependencies

[elgarbe]

I've started with a fresh ubuntu 18 - ros melodic and follow your steps.
When I launch: roslaunch ros_autonomous_slam autonomous_explorer.launch I get:

NODES

    assigner (ros_autonomous_slam/assigner.py)

So I think I need gmapping and sklearn.
What would it be the best way to install them?

Thank!

[elgarbe]

sudo apt-get install ros-melodic-gmapping
and
pip install scikit-learn
works for me.
I can confirm that it's working ok on my side.

The traceback for the exception was written to the log file

facing the same issue, those two files "global_rrt_detector", "local_rrt_detector" are not found in the mentioned directory, furthermore the shebang for the scripts provided with the env probably I hope the developer used the virtual environment for building this i am not sure i may be wrong i just removed the shebang in the python scripts
iam using ros neotic

Have you guys solve this problem ? as I am facing it on ROS Noetic

use ROS Melodic

[KhaledMousaCpp]

I have to use ROS Noetic in my FYP and I need this SLAM technique to be added, as I have seen some people using ROS Noetic and they have managed to make it work, if anyone has a solution please show us how to solve it

This is just a 5 min game in ROS Melodic, Why you are using it. For ROS Neotic Turtlebot3 is not as available as for ROS Neotic according to my research

I just want SLAM technique to generate a map of unknown environment, then I need to find a coverage path planning algorithm similar to vacuum robot in addition to octomap to absorb the reading of UVC light that goes out from the robot.

I personally did work on SLAM, map generation, and all that in ROS Melodic. There are some packages that are only available for ROS Melodic. You can achieve your goals in ROS Melodic without any error. One thinks Melodic has a more extensive community than Noetic. So I will recommend you to work in Melodic.
