1 Particle lter for mobile robot tracking and localisation Tinne De Laet K.U.Leuven, Dept. Werktuigkunde 19 oktober 2005 Particle lter 1

2 Overview Goal Introduction Particle lter Simulations Particle lter 2

3 Goal I To make a tutorial about a particle lter for AI I Comparable with the kalman lter tutorial I This tutorial shows the possible application of a Monte Carlo Simulation method (particle lter) for mobile robot tracking and localisation I Basic particle lter Particle lter 3

4 Overview Goal Introduction General The Bayesian approach Particle lter Simulations Particle lter 4

5 General I Problem: estimate the state of a system that changes over time using sequence of noisy measurements I Two models required: I System model I Measurement model I If the models are in probablistic form the Bayesian approach is ideally suited Particle lter 5

6 The Bayesian approach I Approach provides a rigorous general framework for dynamic state estimation problems I Construct the construct the posterior probability density function (pdf) of the state based on all available information including measurements I The "complete"solution to the estimation problem I An optimal (with respect to any criterion) estimate of the state may be obtained from the pdf Particle lter 6

7 Overview Goal Introduction Particle lter General Model description Prediction Resampling Update Numerical aspects/algorithmic details Estimate Particle lter 7

8 General I Objective: 'track' a variable of interest I Can typically non-gaussian and multi-model pdf $ Kalman lter I Key idea: represent the required pdf by a set of ramdom samples with associated weights and compute estimates based on these samples and weights I Basis: I construct a sample-based representation of the entire pdf I actions modifying the state of the variable of interest according to the models I observation is made ) information about the variables Particle lter 8

9 General: Importance sampling I Weigths of the samples are chosen using the principle of /emphimportance sampling I p(x) / (x) x i q(x) with q(x) the importance density I Weighted approximation to p(x): p(x) P N s i=1 w i (x k 0:k x i ) with w i / (x i ) 0:k q(x i ) I The Sequential Importance Sampling algorithm (SIS) supports recursive propagation of weights and support points Particle lter 9

10 General: Importance sampling I Here the importance sampling function is chosen equal to the prior calculated in the prediction step I ) w i k = w i k 1 P(z kjx k ) {z } measurement model ) Application of the proces model on the samples are samples of the proposal density I Most obvious and most easy to understand choice. Particle lter 10

11 Model description I State: x k y k k T Particle lter 11

12 Model description I Proces model I every motion modeled as rst a rotation around axis followed by a translation Particle lter 12

13 Model description I Rotation: k+1 = k + + N(M rot ; rot ) with = atan y x I Translation: Two sources of error: the actual traveled distance and the changes in orientation during the forward translation (=drift) k+1 = k + + N(M drft ; drft ) x k+1 = x k + ( + N(M trs ; trs )) cos( k+1 ) y k+1 = y k + ( + N(M trs ; trs )) sin( k+1 ) k+1 = k + + N(M drft ; drft ) Particle lter 13

14 Model description I Measurement model I US-sensor: z k = p 2a a 2 +1 x k + p 2 a 2 +1 atan y k + y k ys x k xs p 2b + a 2 m +1 I RF-sensor: 0 q 1 (x z k = k x s ) 2 + (y k y s ) 2 A k Particle lter 14

15 Prediction I Uses the proces model (rotation and translation) to simulate the eect of hte action on the set of particles I Add the apropriate noise to simulate the eect of noise on the variables of interest Particle lter 15

16 Resampling I To prevent the depletion of the population I The eective sample size (ESS) indicates the eectiveness of the particles I If ESS < x:m with M = number of particles ) Resample I Resampling eliminates the particles with smaller weigths and duplicates the ones with higher weights in a probablistic way I Three resampling algorithms I Select with replacement I Linear time resampling I Resampling by Liu et al. Particle lter 16

17 Update I Reevaluate the weight of the particles based on the latest sensory information available I Thanks the the information obtained from the sensor the pdf can be described more accurately Particle lter 17

18 Numerical aspects/algorithmic details I Normalize the weights Particle lter 18

19 I Dierent options I The best particle: x s = xs max I Weighted mean: x s = P M j=1 x j w j I Robust mean: x s = P K Estimate with x max s = x i j w i = max (w j ) j=1 x j w j j jx j xs max j 6 Particle lter 19
