  • 通过浓度测量的相对排序提取特征,避免传感器校准
  • 在未校准传感器下仍保持高精度定位性能
  • 适合野外应急场景中低成本移动机器人使用

真实环境中高效进行气体源定位(GSL)至关重要,尤其在应急情况下。配备低成本原位气体传感器的移动机器人可替代人工进入危险区域。概率算法通过对比机器人采集的分散气体浓度数据与物理扩散模型,提升定位效率。然而,低成本传感器受非线性响应、环境因素(如温湿度、其他气体干扰)及机器人运动影响,难以准确还原真实浓度,传统方法需频繁在控制环境下校准,实际部署困难。为此,本文提出一种新型特征提取算法,利用动态累积数据集中气体测量值的相对排名。通过比较实测与模型预测值的排名差异,估计全环境内源位置的概率分布。我们在高保真仿真和物理实验中验证了该方法,在未校准传感器条件下仍实现一致的定位精度。相比现有方法,本技术无需传感器校准,更适用于真实世界应用。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Efficient Gas Source Localization (GSL) in real-world settings is crucial, especially in emergency scenarios. Mobile robots equipped with low-cost, in-situ gas sensors offer a safer alternative to human inspection in hazardous environments. Probabilistic algorithms enhance GSL efficiency with scattered gas measurements by comparing gas concentration measurements gathered by robots to physical dispersion models. However, accurately deriving gas concentrations from data acquired with low-cost sensors is challenging due to the nonlinear sensor response, environmental dependencies (e.g., humidity, temperature, and other gas influences), and robot motion. Mitigating these disturbance factors requires frequent sensor calibration in controlled environments, which is often impractical for real-world deployments. To overcome these issues, we propose a novel feature extraction algorithm that leverages the relative ranking of gas measurements within the dynamically accumulated dataset. By comparing the rank differences between gathered and modeled values, we estimate the probabilistic distribution of source locations across the entire environment. We validate our approach in high-fidelity simulations and physical experiments, demonstrating consistent localization accuracy with uncalibrated gas sensors. Compared to existing methods, our technique eliminates the need for gas sensor calibration, making it well-suited for real-world applications.
