Abstract

A method includes identifying, using at least one processor, a first point associated with an uncertain location of an object in a space and a polynomial curve associated with an uncertain location of a feature in the space. The method also includes determining, using the at least one processor, a probabilistic proximity of the object and the feature. The probabilistic proximity is determined by identifying a second point on the polynomial curve, transforming an uncertainty associated with the polynomial curve into an uncertainty associated with the second point, and identifying the probabilistic proximity of the object and the feature using the first and second points and the uncertainty associated with the second point.
