Abstract
A method capable of appropriately estimating (specifying) a self-position of a mobile object while appropriately correcting an estimated value of a self-position by an SLAM algorithm is provided. In a self-position estimation method, an actual self-position of a mobile objectis specified (fixed) from self-positions estimated by a plurality of algorithms. The plurality of algorithms includes an SLAM algorithm (12) and an algorithm (11) different from the SLAM algorithm. A correction processing unitintermittently corrects an estimated value of a self-position obtained by the SLAM algorithm in accordance with any one self-position out of an estimated value of a self-position obtained by an algorithm other than SLAM and a specified self-position.
