▼ Learners need effective school-based Guidance and Counselling Services to assist them with their developmental and situational needs. The main aim of the study was to evaluate the extent to which Guidance-Counselling Program is implemented in secondary schools in line with South African Education White Paper 6 of 2001 and ACSA Performance Standards. The study further intended to capacitate educators and Guidance counsellors with knowledge and skills on how to develop and maintain effective Comprehensive and Integrated Guidance-Counselling Services in their institutions. A sample of 153 educators and 130 learners was selected from secondary schools in Gauteng and Mpumalanga provinces. Secondary schools that received (orientation) training on SA Education White Paper 6 from the researcher were compared with those who did not receive such training. Data was collected through a questionnaire consisting of structured and semi-structured questions. Responses from focus groups were content analyzed into themes and descriptive techniques were utilized. The Objective/Close-ended questions were analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) (Version 17). x2 Tests were computed for categorical data and to analyze any differences, in relation to level implementation of Guidance-Counselling Program. The main finding of the study was that, secondary schools differ significantly on how they implement Life Orientation, Guidance and Counselling activities. Furthermore, there is a perfect relationship among secondary school learners and educators on how they perceive the Guidance-Counselling Services within their respective institutions. The need for Comprehensive and Integrated Guidance-Counselling Program Model, clear guidelines and performance standards cannot therefore be overlooked. If this program is effectively implemented, it may contribute substantially towards excellent academic results, improved psychological well-being, and production of matured and responsible future citizens.

▼ The main aim of this research study was to explore the manner in which guidance counsellors enact their agency in their settings. Influences on professional agency in the guidance role are examined as well as identifying how guidance counsellors enact the agency they do have in their practice. Guidance counsellors are tasked with the provision of a holistic guidance service to second-level students, encompassing the areas of personal, educational and vocational guidance (IGC 2017). Neoliberal discourse has shifted the educational agenda of governments toward measures of performativity, efficiency and accountability (Lipman 2009). As a result of various educational cutbacks and reforms, the agency of the guidance counsellor is increasingly contested. This research is framed by Explanatory Sequential Design, in which data was gathered in two phases – an online questionnaire and five semi-structured interviews. Findings of this study indicate that guidance counsellors report they are struggling to engage in all aspects of the holistic guidance model equally and with all students. Findings on professional agency were framed under three themes. Firstly, the main reported influences on professional agency in the guidance role were the allocation of guidance allocation and the relationship between the guidance practitioner and management in the setting. Secondly, when it came of enactment of agency in professional practice, participants reported an increase in the demand for personal guidance across all year groups. However, in practice, vocational guidance with senior cycle students tends to be prioritised. Finally, this research found that participants demonstrated professional agency in their high levels of professional affiliation with the IGC and engagement with CPD. Professional agency was also demonstrated in high levels of engagement with educational policy development in their settings. The implications of these findings are also explored in this study.

▼ Both in the course of doing research and writing this thesis I have benefitted from the support and This study explores the main features of guidance and counseling services in selected secondary schools of Addis Ababa and the views of stakeholders about their effectiveness and usefulness under five research questions. The research sought to evaluate the ways in which the problems faced by the youth and the concern with the normal conduct of the learning and teaching problems determined the features of ongoing school guidance and counseling services and the considerations on the basis of which stakeholders value them as effective and useful. Empirical data consisted of both quantitative and qualitative information. The quantitative data was solicited through questionnaires that surveyed a total of 234 respondents (166 students, 8 counselors, 42 teachers, 13 administrators, and 5 parents). The qualitative data was collected through interviews with selected representatives from each of the groups who participated. Existing literature was reviewed to provide context in which current practices in secondary schools of Addis Ababa should be understood and their effectiveness evaluated. For quantitative data, for percentages and frequencies were calculated. The study revealed that school guidance and counseling in secondary schools of Addis Ababa is organized and delivered in order to meet some of the immediate and pressing needs of students (including destitution, violence, irregular attendance, HIV/AIDS, and substance abuse) and deal with problems that are believed to negatively affect the teaching and learning process, not as a package of programs put together to enhance the intellectual and personal development of the student. Judgment about effectiveness and usefulness of the services varied from school to school and also depending on the demographic characteristics of the respondents. However, on most of the criteria used to measure effectiveness and usefulness, the majority of respondents viewed the services as effective and useful. The responses were also consistent regarding the factors that negatively affected the effectiveness of the services. Based on the findings, recommendations are made about how school guidance and counseling in the city's secondary schools might be improved in the short term, and changed in the long term. It is suggested that interventions to improve the current system should focus on awareness creation, better coordination, and collaboration between counselors and their colleagues, and move away from violence as a means of enforcing discipline. Change in the long term should involve a rethinking of school guidance and counseling in order to establish it in the school system on sound scientific and professional grounds.

▼ The purpose of the study was to ascertain the reasons why uniformed personnel in the Zambia National Service did not utilise the VCT services which were located in the ZNS Camps. This would be of value to the management in the ZNS to be aware of the barriers existing that prevent VCT utilisation and how these barriers could be overcome in order to enhance the service, thereby promoting good health and productivity among personnel. OBJECTIVES The general objective of the study was to find out the barriers and perceptions of VCT which contributed to lack of utilisation of VCT services among ZNS personnel Specific objectives were to determine extent of utilization of VCT services; to evaluate factors associated with utilisation or lack of utilisation of VCT services; to evaluate the knowledge and perceptions of VCT services; to find out the percentage of VCT clients accessing ART services and to make recommendations on the VCT programmes in the Zambia National Service in the light of the research findings. RESPONDENTS The study included male and female Commissioned and Non-Commissioned Officers of the rank from Private to Lieutenant Colonel aged between 18 and 49 years, who had not previously utilised the Camp VCT services. A total of 596 personnel participated in the study. METHODS Data was collected both quantitatively and qualitatively. Quantitative data was collected by administering a standardised pre-tested questionnaire to each participant. In addition, four focus group discussions were conducted; one in each Camp. A total of 24 personnel participated in the discussions. A checklist was also used in which information was collected from staff managing the VCT clinic and from the clinic VCT records. The study was a cross-sectional survey. A convenient sample was chosen from the four Camps. However, due to the low ratio of female to male personnel in ZNS, all female personnel were purposely included in the study. FINDINGS The findings show that the overall knowledge of HIV and AIDS was very high (97%), and that over 97% of the respondents were aware that VCT services were available at the Camp clinics. Although records indicated that HIV and AIDS programmes such as HIV and AIDS Sensitization, Home Based Care, PMTCT, Peer Education and VCT were being implemented in the Camps, only 74% of the respondents said that they would like to know their HIV status but only 53.7% knew their status. The respondents who knew their status had done their HIV test either at the government or NGO facilities. The respondents listed the barriers preventing VCT utilisation in ZNS Camps as fear of stigma (59.4%), fear of intimidation by Senior Officers (14.8%), fear of dismissal from employment (4.9),lack of confidentiality of VCT results by health providers (58%). Respondents felt that VCT services were attached with a lot of stigma and discrimination (70%). Focus Group Discussions strongly criticised the centralised structure for ART which lacked confidentiality of HIV and AIDS information of personnel. The VCT clinic…

The purpose of the research was to investigate (a) the identifiable content and approaches used in career guidance, (b) contextual factors inside and outside the university that influence career guidance, (c) how the people involved perceive the effect of career guidance on enhancing students' career competencies, (d) problems in delivering and receiving career guidance, and (e) how career guidance can be strengthened and improved. Qualitative data were collected between 2010 and 2012, using multiple methods including individual interviews, focus groups, observations, and documentary study. A total of 13 individual interviews and 5 focus group sessions were completed. The researcher collected information related to perceptions of university students, graduates, administrators, career practitioners, student tutors and teachers involved in the career guidance service. Evidence was also obtained from curriculum designs, reports, surveys, web pages, and documents produced by the school, faculties and student association. The researcher also conducted 17 participant and non-participant observations during relevant career activities. The data analysis involved coding, categorization, concept mapping, and theme generation. The themes that emerged were triangulated using data from the various sources. The findings reveal that a system has been built to provide career guidance through three separate channels. The Career Center is formally in charge of all career affairs; but currently ‘employment management’ is its main duty. Various career activities (conducted by students) are provided by the Students' Career Development Association (SCDA), which is supported by the Career Center. Also, in each faculty, career guidance related to specific majors is implemented. Contextual factors that influence career guidance can be summarized under four aspects: national policies and university support; management systems; political tradition of a centralization system; and various resources. The findings suggest that career guidance does enhance students’ career competencies, particularly in areas of self-understanding, career-related knowledge and skills, and in career-relevant networking. A variety of problems have existed in the university in relation to career guidance, including the lack of a comprehensive service, insufficient resources, a lack of credibility, uneven quality of career guidance, and a lack of professional training for the personnel involved. Many suggestions have been put forward by students and teachers for strategies to improve career guidance. In particular, it is believed that the Career Center, the faculties, and SCDA have to increase their coordination and cooperation at all levels, by a better integration of resources. The data analyzed in this study provide a unique picture of the implementation and content of career guidance with Chinese characteristics. In addition,… Advisors/Committee Members: Yuen, MT.

Dissertation submitted in partial compliance with the requirements for the Master's Degree in Technology: Chiropractic, Durban University of Technology, 2008.

The aim of this study was to investigate the factors affecting the career choice of selected health-care students (physiotherapy, chiropractic, medicine and occupational therapy) in KwaZulu Natal. Multiple reasons exist for choosing careers. However, the set of factors involved when students commit to at least 4 to 7 years of their lives to these alternative and mainstream health care professions are of particular interest to this study. This was a demographic-epidemiological, cross-sectional survey-type quantitative study, based on a pre-validated questionnaire which was administered to the participants. The questionnaire was distributed to 29 first year chiropractic students of the Durban University of Technology, 32 first year physiotherapy and 22 occupational therapy students of the University of KwaZulu Natal, and 55 first year medical students of the Nelson Mandela School of Medicine. The results revealed that parents were a major factor influencing career choice (68.1%), as were significant other people (42%). However, siblings, peers and television did not have a major influence. Only television had a differential influence on the student groups (p<0.001). The medical students (20%) were influenced by television to a greater extent than the other professions. The majority of respondents obtained information from professionals visiting schools (56.5%), while family and guidance counsellors were also important sources of information (52.2% and 50.7% respectively). These results also revealed that chiropractic students were more likely to use the Internet to find out about careers than the other student groups. Previous past experience with a professional from their chosen career field did have a relatively strong influence (46.4%) whereas physiotherapists and chiropractors were more likely than the other two groups to be influenced by a professional from that career. V Working with people was the most important personal factor influencing career choice. The altruistic factor of helping others was the second most important factor. The least important personal factors were prestige, variety, lifestyle and enjoyment of working with their hands. Another result indicated that the ability to define personal goals was important for medical students but it was not very important for occupational therapy students. The joy of working with their hands was more important for chiropractic and physiotherapy students. The motivation to help others was more important to occupational therapy students. Finally, the results showed that prestige was most important for chiropractic students. A good work atmosphere was the most important work-related factor (75.4%), followed by the ability to run their own office (64.5%) and working conditions (55.1%). Of least importance was the presence of blood (7.2%). “The ability to run your own office” was significantly different…

▼ In the guidance literature, minimizing miss distance along with optimizing the energy usage had been an objective for several decades. In current day applications, additional terminal performance such as impact angle and impact time are of paramount importance. These terminal constraints increase warhead effectiveness and survivability of the interceptor. This thesis contributes to the design of guidance laws addressing terminal constraints such as impact angle, impact time, and both impact time as well as impact angle, in addition to interception of targets. In the first part of the thesis, the guidance laws which ensure the alignment of the interceptor at a desired impact angle within a finite time is proposed using different variants of sliding mode control(SMC).The impact angle is first redefined in terms of line-of-sight angle and then the impact angle problem is converted to a simpler problem of controlling line-of-sight angle and their rates. The sliding mode capturability and interpretation of the guidance laws are presented. In order to cater to very large heading angle errors, which give rise to negative closing speed initially, modifications to the guidance laws are also suggested. The modifications to the guidance laws for avoiding singularities, which may be encountered during implementation, due to the inherent nature of terminal SMC, are suggested. However, the guidance laws, which alleviates the possibility of such singularities completely, are also designed by using non singular terminal SMC. The two loop guidance and control, for a skid-to-turn cruciform interceptor in the pitch plane, is also proposed with an autopilot designed using the concept of dynamic SMC. The guidance laws addressing impact angle constraint for three dimensional scenarios are also presented. Unlike the usual approach of decoupling the three dimensional engagement in to two mutually orthogonal planar engagements, the guidance laws are derived using coupled engagement dynamics. These guidance laws are designed using conventional and non singular terminal SMC and provide asymptotic and finite time alignment of the intercept or to the desired impact angles, respectively. Next, the SMC based guidance laws which ensure the interception of targets at pre-speciﬁed impact times is proposed in this thesis. The guidance law is first designed for stationary targets and then extended to constant velocity targets using the notion of predicted interception point. A switching surface is designed using the concepts of collision course and time-to-go with non-linear engagement dynamics and its role in achieving the objectives is also discussed. In order to account for large heading angle errors and even for negative initial closing speeds, different methods of estimation of time-to-go, resulting in two different guidance laws, are used. Unlike the existing guidance laws, the proposed guidance laws achieve an impact time even less than its initially estimated value. The flexibility in selecting a desired impact time is also exploited using… Advisors/Committee Members: Ghose, Debasish.

▼ Skills development is a crucial issue in South Africa as the economy of the country will only grow if there are people with the right skills and expertise to run all sectors of the economy. This study examined the career choices of Black Grade twelve learners in order to determine whether at this level learners have broadened their career choices to include scarce areas such as, for example, Science, Mathematics and Economics Management Science. The choice of careers is an important sustainable development issue, because without relevant expertise the economy of the country will not improve. Secondly, the demise of apartheid opened up careers which were previously denied to Black people; it is for this reason that the researcher examined the career choices of Black Grade twelve learners in the Province of KwaZulu-Natal in the Republic of South Africa. The study made use of questionnaires to establish what kind of career choices Black Grade twelve learners made and also to find out whether there was any difference between the careers chosen by girls and boys and also between rural and urban learners. The study found that the general career choices of both males and females had changed by the time they reached Grade twelve, seen against career studies done at Primary school level (Mmema, 2010). In this study, some males currently chose careers that were previously only popular with females in grade seven, such as nursing, information technology, tourism, and computer sciences. Similarly, girls had begun to choose careers that were traditionally popular with the boys, such as mining, land surveying, doctor, civil engineering, prison warden, journalism, electrical engineering and mechanical engineering. The strategy of the Department of Education in encouraging girls to participate in science projects seems to be working, even though it is at this stage concentrated at urban schools. The study indicated that the Department of Education needed to put more effort into career guidance in rural schools where the learners were not exposed to diverse career choices and information about technology. Learners in the urban areas seemed to be more familiar with career choices in general than the rural learners. Very few males and females intended to choose any of the many apprenticeships available in the trades, with the result that foreign people often take up the trades after following an apprenticeship. This is one of the important factors that cause xenophobia. Many of the sectors of the economy in this country are experiencing crisis. The result is that most of the economy of the country is controlled by people who have not chosen their professions with the necessary foresight and are therefore square pegs in round holes. This poses a serious challenge to the government and also to the Department of Education; they have to make learners more aware of the shortage of skills in the different sectors and prepare them to make wise career choices. As a recommendation, it is suggested that the government put… Advisors/Committee Members: Dlamini, E.T (advisor).

▼ The purpose of this study was to explore the self-efficacy beliefs and attachment characteristics of school counselors and the relationship of these variables to school counseling program implementation. The population for this study consisted of elementary school counselors who agreed to have their email addresses included as part of a national school counselor association database. All data were obtained via self-report measures and were collected through an internet survey that was accessed through a link within recruitment emails. Instruments used in the survey include a demographic questionnaire developed by the researcher, the School Counselor Activity Rating Scale (SCARS; Scarborough, 2005), the School Counselor Self-Efficacy Scale (SCSE; Bodenhorn & Skaggs, 2005), and the Experiences in Close Relationships Scale-Short Form (ECR-Short Form; Wei et al., 2007). Correlation analyses were conducted to assess for a relationship between years of experience, ASCA National Model training and use, and delivery of school counseling services. Simple linear regressions were used to test the direct effects of self-efficacy and attachment on service delivery, and multiple regressions were used to test moderation effects of attachment in the relationship between self-efficacy and service delivery. The results suggested that school counselors with more years of experience and more ASCA National Model training and use, were more likely to be performing intervention activities (i.e. counseling, consultation, curriculum, and coordination). Supporting previous research, higher school counselor self-efficacy beliefs predicted higher levels of delivery of intervention activities that are consistent with the ASCA National Model. Specifically, self-efficacy beliefs most strongly predicted the coordination activities associated with program implementation. With regard to attachment characteristics, anxiety predicted the discrepancy between actual and preferred activities not considered within the scope of appropriate school counselor duties. Attachment anxiety but not avoidance predicted actual and preferred engagement in intervention activities. The results of the study did not support attachment anxiety and avoidance as a moderator in the relationship between self-efficacy and school counselor service delivery. This study adds to the current literature by replicating existing self-efficacy research and introduces school counselor attachment as a novel contribution to this research base.

▼ The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between research self-efficacy (as measured by the Research Self-Efficacy Scale [Greeley et al., 1989]), perceptions of the research training environment (as measured by the Research Training Environment Scale – Revised [Gelso et al., 1996]), and interest in research (as measured by the Interest in Research Questionnaire [Bieschke & Bishop, 1994]) within a national sample of doctoral counselor education students (N = 89). Additionally, the study investigated whether there were differences between levels of research self-efficacy, perceptions of the research training environment, and interest in research in relation to the demographic characteristics (i.e., age, gender, race/ethnicity, scholarly productivity, reported professional aspirations, and number of doctoral-level research courses completed) of counselor education doctoral students. An ex-post facto, cross-sectional design was implemented which included the following statistical analyses: Pearson's correlation coefficients (two-tailed), simultaneous multiple regression, and analysis of variance (ANOVA). Findings identified that the demographic variables of age and doctoral-level research courses completed had a statistically significant effect upon perceptions of the research training environment. In addition, results suggested that scholarly activity had a statistically significant effect on research self-efficacy scores. Finally, interest in research was positively correlated with research self-efficacy scores. In summary, the study addressed the present void in the counselor education literature with regard to counselor education doctoral students' development in the areas of research self-efficacy, perceptions of the research training environment, and interest in research. In order to contribute to the counselor education literature and support doctoral student development, it is crucial that counselor education doctoral training programs provide an effective research training environment to foster and encourage student research. Recognizing and appreciating the influence of counselor education doctoral students' research self-efficacy, perceptions of the research training environment, and interest in research may not only be important for students, but is also necessary for counselor education doctoral preparation programs to continue to develop and prepare students for academic positions and success. Study findings may provide beneficial information to assist colleges and universities to develop and tailor polices to encourage and foster research amongst their doctoral counselor education students.

▼ This study examined the self-rated development in cognitive complexity, autonomy, and self-other awareness of master's-level counselor trainees during the internship year. Participants were 70 internship students enrolled in four counseling programs in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. With the cooperation of internship instructors, the researcher collected data at one of the first class meetings in September, then obtained follow-up data seven months later at one of the final class meetings. Instruments used were the Learning Environment Preferences (LEP; Moore, 1987), the Self-Monitoring Scale (SMS; Snyder & Gangestad, 1986), and the Supervisee Levels Questionnaire-Revised (SLQ-R; McNeill, Stoltenberg, & Romans, 1992). Demographic data, including race/ethnicity and age, were also collected. It was hypothesized that cognitive complexity, self-other awareness, and autonomy would increase over the course of the year. To test this hypothesis, a repeated-measures MANOVA was performed with cognitive complexity, self-other awareness, and autonomy as the dependent variables. It was also hypothesized that cognitive complexity at the beginning of the year would predict self-other awareness and autonomy at the end of the year. Hierarchical regression analyses were conducted to test this hypothesis. Finally, it was hypothesized that there would be a significant correlation between self-monitoring and autonomy at the beginning of the year and a significantly weaker correlation at the end of the year. Results indicated partial support for these hypotheses. While self-other awareness and autonomy significantly increased over the course of the year, cognitive complexity did not. Cognitive complexity at Time 1 predicted self-other awareness at Time 2, but not autonomy. Finally, there was no significant relationship between self-monitoring and autonomy at Time 1. It was noted that there was a main effect for race/ethnicity on cognitive complexity, with White students scoring significantly higher than non-White students. Areas for future research are suggested, including further validation of cognitive complexity assessment instruments, obtaining ratings from supervisors and clients, and examining the possible moderating role of anxiety.

▼ Considered is a class of cooperative control problems that has a special affine characterization. Included in this class of multi-agent problems are the so called radar deception problem, formation keeping and formation reconfiguration. An intrinsic geometric formulation of the associated constraints unifies this class of problems and it is the first time such a generalization has been presented. Based on this geometric formulation, a real-time motion planning algorithm is proposed to generate dynamically feasible reference trajectories for the class. The proposed approach explicitly considers actuator and operating constraints of the individual agents and constrained dynamics are derived intrinsically for the multi-agent system which makes these constraints transparent. Deriving the constrained dynamics eliminates the need for nonlinear programming to account for the system constraints, making the approach amenable to real-time control. Explicit consideration of actuator and operating limitations and nonholonomic constraints in the design of the reference trajectories addresses the important issue of dynamic feasibility. The motion planning algorithm developed here is verified through simulations for the radar deception, rigid formation keeping and formation reconfiguration problems. A key objective of this study is to advocate a change in paradigm in the approach to formation control by addressing the key issues of dynamic feasibility and computational complexity. The other important contributions of this study are: Unifying formulation of constrained dynamics for a class of problems in formation control through the intrinsic geometry of their nonholonomic and holonomic constraints; Deriving these constrained dynamics in any choice of frame that can even be coordinate free; Explicit consideration of actuator and operating limits in formation control to design dynamically feasible reference trajectories and Developing a real-time, distributed, scalable motion planning algorithm applicable to a class of autonomous multi-agent systems in formation control.

▼ The purpose of this study was to determine factors that impacted on engineering professionals’ decision to seek alternative employment, as well as to determine the decision making processes applied by engineering professionals when seeking alternative employment. A conceptual model was developed to illustrate the impact of various factors on labour turnover and the decision making processes that could be followed by engineering professionals when seeking alternative employment. The factors impacting on labour turnover were organised into four categories, namely external, internal, expectations and personal trait factors. The theoretical study revealed that employees were more likely to leave their present organisations if they perceived that there was ample opportunity for acceptable alternative employment (Bigliardi, Petroni & Dormio, 2005). Zimmerman (2008) stated that employee turnover was a problem faced by all organisations globally. In their study they mentioned that high labour turnover rates have been associated with decreased customer satisfaction, productivity, future revenue growth and profitability. A sense of instability and frustration can also cause work backlogs and slow productivity. At times employees lose faith in their organisations as more individuals seek alternative employment (Drake International, 2010). When the organisation experiences high turnover, burnout also increases and could possibly lead to stayers also seeking alternative employment. Previous studies contain evidence of an extensive poaching of South African engineering professionals (technologists and engineers) by overseas companies (Du Toit & Roodt, 2009). As a result of this mobility and the lack of significant engineering graduates entering the industry, companies competed for a limited number of engineering professionals. This challenge resulted in a higher labour turnover rate among engineers as the demand for engineering professionals was higher than the supply. The skills shortage of engineering professionals in South Africa was one of the perceived contributing factors impacting engineering professionals’ decision to seek alternative employment. Apart from the shortage of skills there were other factors that impacted on engineering professionals’ decision to seek alternative employment. External factors, such as slow recruitment due to the low economy, have been identified as having an impact on labour turnover rates. Bigliardi et al (2005) stated that external factors, also referred to as push factors, such as changes in economic, social and technological conditions,created challenges for retaining engineering professionals. Through developing multivariate models that combine a number of factors contributing to labour turnover and empirically testing these models, researchers have attempted to predict why individuals decide to seek alternative employment (MINTRAC, 2010). The job search process was evaluated and referred to as the process of looking for alternatives to a current job, and the evaluation of those… Advisors/Committee Members: Werner, Amanda Dr.

▼ This thesis investigates new convex optimisation techniques for motion and pose estimation. Numerous computer vision problems can be formulated as optimisation problems. These optimisation problems are generally solved via linear techniques using the singular value decomposition or iterative methods under an L2 norm minimisation. Linear techniques have the advantage of offering a closed-form solution that is simple to implement. The quantity being minimised is, however, not geometrically or statistically meaningful. Conversely, L2 algorithms rely on iterative estimation, where a cost function is minimised using algorithms such as Levenberg-Marquardt, Gauss-Newton, gradient descent or conjugate gradient. The cost functions involved are geometrically interpretable and can statistically be optimal under an assumption of Gaussian noise. However, in addition to their sensitivity to initial conditions, these algorithms are often slow and bear a high probability of getting trapped in a local minimum or producing infeasible solutions, even for small noise levels. In light of the above, in this thesis we focus on developing new techniques for finding solutions via a convex optimisation framework that are globally optimal. Presently convex optimisation techniques in motion estimation have revealed enormous advantages. Indeed, convex optimisation ensures getting a global minimum, and the cost function is geometrically meaningful. Moreover, robust optimisation is a recent approach for optimisation under uncertain data. In recent years the need to cope with uncertain data has become especially acute, particularly where real-world applications are concerned. In such circumstances, robust optimisation aims to recover an optimal solution whose feasibility must be guaranteed for any realisation of the uncertain data. Although many researchers avoid uncertainty due to the added complexity in constructing a robust optimisation model and to lack of knowledge as to the nature of these uncertainties, and especially their propagation, in this thesis robust convex optimisation, while estimating the uncertainties at every step is investigated for the motion estimation problem. First, a solution using convex optimisation coupled to the recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm and the robust H filter is developed for motion estimation. In another solution, uncertainties and their propagation are incorporated in a robust L convex optimisation framework for monocular visual motion estimation. In this solution, robust least squares is combined with a second order cone program (SOCP). A technique to improve the accuracy and the robustness of the fundamental matrix is also investigated in this thesis. This technique uses the covariance intersection approach to fuse feature location uncertainties, which leads to more consistent motion estimates. Loop-closure detection is crucial in improving the robustness of navigation algorithms. In practice, after long navigation in an unknown environment, detecting that a vehicle is in a location it has…
