Recently, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) approaches employing Rao-Blackwellized particle filter (RBPF) have shown good results. However, no research is conducted to analyze the result representation of SLAM using RBPF (RBPF-SLAM) when particle diversity is preserved. After finishing the particle filtering, the results such as a map and a path are stored in the separate particles. Thus, we propose several result representations and provide the analysis of the representations. For the analysis, estimation errors and their variances, and consistency of RBPF-SLAM are dealt in this study. According to the simulation results, combining data of each particle provides the better result with high probability than using just data of a particle such as the highest weighted particle representation.
