Summary: | In this paper, we aim to achieve robust and cost-effective room-level localization for the indoor mobile robot. It is unrealistic to obtain precise localization information from the sonar sensors because of the sparseness and uncertainty. Our attempts show that the room-level localization can be achieved using sonar sensors by accumulating the sonar data to overcome the limitations of sensor performance. To this end, we formulate the room-level localization as a joint sparse coding problem, which encourages the coding vectors to share the common room sparsity, but different locations. We systematically evaluate the performance of the different coding strategies on the collected sonar measurement data set. |
