  • Abstract
    A new grid map-merging technique which consists of virtual emphasis by one-way observation, curvature-based map matching and particle swarm optimisation is proposed. The proposed technique can improve not only the accuracy of map merging, but also the flexibility of multi-robot systems. The improved performance is verified by showing higher similarities than the existing map-merging techniques in experiments.
