Popis: Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is a key technology for mobile robot autonomous navigation in unknown environments. While FastSLAM algorithm is a popular solution to the large-scale SLAM problem, it suffers from two major drawbacks: one is particle set degeneracy due to lack of measurements in proposal distribution of particle filter; the other is errors accumulation caused by inaccurate linearization of the nonlinear robot motion model and the environment measurement model. To overcome the problems, a new Jacobian-free cubature FastSLAM (CFastSLAM) algorithm is proposed in this paper. The main contribution of the algorithm lies in the utilization of third-degree cubature rule, which calculates the nonlinear transition density of Gaussian prior more accurately, to design an optimal proposal distribution of the particle filter and to estimate the Gaussian densities of the feature landmarks. On the basis of Rao-Blackwellized particle filter, the proposed algorithm is comprised by two ma...
