Results for Outdoor-SLAM Using Sparse Extended Information Filters

Yufeng Liu and Sebastian Thrun

In [Thrun et al, 02], a new algorithm was proposed for efficiently solving the simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) problem. In this paper, we extend this algorithm to handle data association problems and report real-world results, obtained with an outdoor vehicle. We find that our approach performs favorably when compared to the extended Kalman filter solution from which it is derived.
