PSO-FastSLAM: An improved FastSLAM framework using particle swarm optimization

An Effective FastSLAM Algorithm Based on CUDA

“…The research in the future will focus on how to implement PSO-FastSLAM [13][14][15]. At the same time, we will transplant from single-GPU to multi-GPU, which will further accelerate the algorithm.…”

Autonomous navigation based on unscented-FastSLAM using particle swarm optimization for autonomous underwater vehicles

“…Generally speaking, PSO is thought to be a simple and fast method of optimization compared with GA, HS and GSA, whereas PSO is still able to obtain high accuracy of prediction and reach the optima by updating generations [31]. For this purpose, PSO might be more appropriate to be adopted in particle filter to optimize the sampling step [32,33].…”

Geometric particle swarm optimization for robust visual ego-motion estimation via particle filtering

“…Furthermore, both Ref. [23] and Ref. [24] only deal with 3-DOF ego-motion estimation problems, i.e., the state space is confined to a 2-D plane.…”

“…Ref. [23] proposed PSO-FastSLAM, where PSO is used to enhance the resampling performance of the ordinary FastSLAM method used for visual SLAM. Hence, PSO-FastSLAM cannot properly deal with the abrupt camera motion.…”

“…PSO has been already applied to various vision problems such as visual tracking [21,22] and visual SLAM [23,24]. Here, we concentrate on PSO for visual ego-motion estimation-related problems.…”
