It remains difficult for mobile robots to continue accurate self-localization when they are suddenly teleported to a location that is different from their beliefs during navigation. Incorporating insights from neuroscience into developing a spatial cognition model for mobile robots may make it possible to acquire the ability to respond appropriately to changing situations, similar to living organisms. Recent neuroscience research has shown that during teleportation in rat navigation, neural populations of place cells in the cornu ammonis-3 region of the hippocampus, which are sparse representations of each other, switch discretely. In this study, we construct a spatial cognition model using brain reference architecture-driven development, a method for developing brain-inspired software that is functionally and structurally consistent with the brain. The spatial cognition model was realized by integrating the recurrent state—space model, a world model, with Monte Carlo localization to infer allocentric self-positions within the framework of neuro-symbol emergence in the robotics toolkit. The spatial cognition model, which models the cornu ammonis-1 and -3 regions with each latent variable, demonstrated improved self-localization performance of mobile robots during teleportation in a simulation environment. Moreover, it was confirmed that sparse neural activity could be obtained for the latent variables corresponding to cornu ammonis-3. These results suggest that spatial cognition models incorporating neuroscience insights can contribute to improving the self-localization technology for mobile robots.
