Polar Metric-Weighted Norm-Based Scan Matching for Robot Pose Estimation by Guanglei Huo, Lijun Zhao, Ke Wang, Ruifeng Li, Jianqiang Li

“…However, due to the facts that PSM considers the distribution similarity of polar radii in irrelevant region of reference and current scans and Mb-ICP assumes a constant weight in the norm about rotation angle, they may lead to a mismatching of the reference and current scan in real-world scenarios. In order to obtain better match results and accurate estimation of the robot pose, we introduce a new metric rule, Polar Metric-Weighted Norm (PMWN), which takes both rotation and translation into account to match the reference and current scan. …”
