Pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) using smartphones is a popular method for indoor localization. However, it encounters challenges due to the drift of position errors. While external resources like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and indoor maps can correct the drift, they require the preinstallation of facilities or information, limiting their application. Inspired by the recent advancement of the simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), such as the visual SLAM, this article proposes a factor graph optimization (FGO)-based smartphone inertial measurement unit (IMU)-only indoor SLAM with multihypothesis turning behavior loop closures. In this article, the turning behavior that can be observed repetitively is regarded as landmarks, which are like the visual landmarks in visual SLAM. FGO is employed, wherein the motion deduced from PDR is used to establish relative constraints between consecutive variable nodes. Meanwhile, the robust loop closure constraint inferred from the multihypothesis behavior data association is formed to correct the drift of the PDR. Experimental tests in different scenarios are done to evaluate the localization performance, and the time consumption of the proposed method is given.
