66 /** The parameters used in the generation of random samples:
67 * \param beaconsMap The map containing the N beacons (indexed by their "beacon ID"s). Only the mean 3D position of the beacons is used, the covariance is ignored.
68 * \param observation An observation with, at least ONE range measurement.
69 * \param sigmaRanges The standard deviation of the "range measurement noise".
70 * \param robot_z The height of the robot on the floor (default=0). Note that the beacon sensor on the robot may be at a different height, according to data within the observation object.
71 * \param autoCheckAngleRanges Whether to make a simple check for potential good angles from the beacons to generate samples (disable to speed-up the preparation vs. making slower the drawn).
72 * This method fills out the member "m_dataPerBeacon".
73 * \return true if at least ONE beacon has been successfully loaded, false otherwise. In this case do not call "rejectionSampling" or an exception will be launch, since there is no information to generate samples.
