This work proposes a resilient and adaptive state estimation framework for robots operating in perceptually-degraded environments. The approach, called Adaptive Maximum Correntropy Criterion Kalman Filtering (AMCCKF), is inherently robust to corrupted measurements, such as those containing jumps or general non-Gaussian noise, and is able to modify filter parameters online to improve performance. Two separate methods are developed -- the Variational Bayesian AMCCKF (VB-AMCCKF) and Residual AMCCKF (R-AMCCKF) -- that modify the process and measurement noise models in addition to the bandwidth of the kernel function used in MCCKF based on the quality of measurements received. The two approaches differ in computational complexity and overall performance which is experimentally analyzed. The method is demonstrated in real experiments on both aerial and ground robots and is part of the solution used by the COSTAR team participating at the DARPA Subterranean Challenge.
The unscented transformation (UT) is an efficient method to solve the state estimation problem for a non-linear dynamic system, utilizing a derivative-free higher-order approximation by approximating a Gaussian distribution rather than approximating
We consider the robust filtering problem for a nonlinear state-space model with outliers in measurements. To improve the robustness of the traditional Kalman filtering algorithm, we propose in this work two robust filters based on mixture correntropy
Inertial measurement units are widely used in different fields to estimate the attitude. Many algorithms have been proposed to improve estimation performance. However, most of them still suffer from 1) inaccurate initial estimation, 2) inaccurate ini
Intraoperative tracking of surgical instruments is an inevitable task of computer-assisted surgery. An optical tracking system often fails to precisely reconstruct the dynamic location and pose of a surgical tool due to the acquisition noise and meas
The Kalman filter is the most powerful tool for estimation of the states of a linear Gaussian system. In addition, using this method, an expectation maximization algorithm can be used to estimate the parameters of the model. However, this algorithm c
