Abstract
An autonomous driving robot includes a driving unit that moves the autonomous robot; a camera; a traveling distance measurement sensor; and a control unit that estimates a location of the autonomous robot using a captured image and traveling distance information. In this case, the operation control program generates a robot viewpoint map based on the image captured by the camera, estimates a location of the autonomous robot based on the robot viewpoint map and the measured traveling distance information, and generates a global map based on the robot viewpoint map and position estimation information, and the operation control program inputs the generated robot viewpoint map and global map into a style-transfer model, and inputs a style-transferred robot viewpoint map and a style-transferred global map output by the style-transfer model into the operation agent to correct the estimated position.
