Sensor model and Inverse sensor model using occupancy grid mapping with lidar for particle filter
I'm a bit confused about how one goes about calculating the sensor model $p(z_t|x_t, m) $ and inverse sensor model for position $p(x_t |z_t,m_{t-1})$.
From this answer, it seems like one way for ...

Do we need a backend graph optimizer for OctoMap?
As far as I know, OctoMap or any other grid occupancy maps are only for mapping. How do they handle a loop closure problem?
The first method came to my mind is optimizing a pose graph in the backend ...

How to evaluate 3D Occupancy grid maps
I would like to know how to go about evaluating 3D occupancy grid maps.
I have a SLAM system that produces a 3D OGM (in .bt format using octomap/octovis)
I also have a ground truth OGM in same .bt ...

In order to integrate MCL and Occupancy Grid to implement Grid-based FastSLAM, do you have to record all data?
It's unclear as to how one goes about integrating Occupancy Grid mapping and Monte Carlo localization to implement SLAM.
Assuming Mapping is one process, Localization is another process, and some ...

Can mapping be done in real life applications without also solving the localization problem at the same time (i.e. SLAM)?
I know that Occupancy Grid Mapping requires the assumption that the robots' pose is always known when generating a map. However, I also know that in reality, position and orientation usually treated ...
