A Counter Example to the Theory of Simultaneous Localization and Map Building

چکیده
This paper analyses the properties of the full covariance simultaneous map building problem (SLAM). We prove that, for the special case of a stationary vehicle (with no process noise) which uses a range-bearing sensor and has non-zero angular uncertainty, the fullcovariance SLAM algorithm always yields an inconsistent map. We also show, through simulations, that these conclusions appear to extend to a moving vehicle with process noise. However, these inconsistencies only become apparent after several hundred beacon updates.

Map-merging in Multi-robot Simultaneous Localization and Mapping Process Using Two Heterogeneous Ground Robots
In this article, a fast and reliable map-merging algorithm is proposed to produce a global two dimensional map of an indoor environment in a multi-robot simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) process. In SLAM process, to find its way in this environment, a robot should be able to determine its position relative to a map formed from its observations. To solve this complex problem, simultan...

متن کاملSimultaneous Localization and Map-Building Using Active Vision
ÐAn active approach to sensing can provide the focused measurement capability over a wide field of view which allows correctly formulated Simultaneous Localization and Map-Building (SLAM) to be implemented with vision, permitting repeatable longterm localization using only naturally occurring, automatically-detected features. In this paper, we present the first example of a general system for a...

This paper proposes a new approach for calibration of dead reckoning process. Using the well-known UMBmark (University of Michigan Benchmark) is not sufficient for a desirable calibration of dead reckoning. Besides, existing calibration methods usually require explicit measurement of actual motion of the robot. Some recent methods use the smart encoder trailer or long range finder sensors such ...

Abstract— An active approach to sensing can provide the focused measurement capability over a wide field of view which allows correctly formulated Simultaneous Localisation and Map-Building (SLAM) to be implemented with vision, permitting repeatable long-term localisation using only naturally occurring, automatically-detected features. In this paper we present the first example of a general sys...
