Summary:In this paper, a novel methodology is proposed to solve the simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) problem of mobile robot with particle filter (PF) algorithm. Compared with Kalman filter (KF) and extended Kalman filter (EKF), PF has a better performance in non-linear non-Gaussian environments. A close-loop updating scheme is developed in which positions of the robot and landmarks are updated with particle filtering and a weighted averaging algorithm respectively, and are linked through an additional feedback and correction process. An adaptive re-sampling method is used to reduce the computational load. The results of the simulation indicate that the PF-SLAM algorithm can localize the robot and landmarks accurately, and the error of landmarks' estimation converges better than general SLAM algorithms.
