Abstract
This paper is concerned with the localization problem of robot in unstable environment. To improve the accuracy of the localization result in the environment, a grid-based Monte Carlo localization algorithm with hierarchical free-form scan matching (MCL-HF) is proposed. In MCL-HF algorithm the distribution of the samples is adapted by the most recent observation. To simplify the process of the adaptation a feature-based scan-matching algorithm is adopted in the grid-based localization algorithm in a hierarchical free-form. The advantage of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through the experiment results.
