Title
Accuracy bounds and optimal computation of robot localization
Abstract
We present an optimal method for estimat- ing the current location of a mobile robot by matching an image of the scene taken by the robot with the model of the known environment. We first derive a theoretical ac- curacy bound and then give a computational scheme that can attain that bound, which can be viewed as describ- ing the probability distribution of the current location. Using real images, we demonstrate that our method is superior to the naive least-squares method. We also con- firm the theoretical predictions of our theory by applying the bootstrap procedure.
