This paper presents a neural-enhanced probabilistic model and corresponding factor graph-based sum-product algorithm for robust localization and tracking in multipath-prone environments. The introduced hybrid probabilistic model consists of physics-based and data-driven measurement models capturing the information contained in both, the line-of-sight (LOS) component as well as in multipath components (NLOS components). The physics-based and data-driven models are embedded in a joint Bayesian framework allowing to derive from first principles a factor graph-based algorithm that fuses the information of these models. The proposed algorithm uses radio signal measurements from multiple base stations to robustly estimate the mobile agent&#x0027;s position together with all model parameters. It provides high localization accuracy by exploiting the position-related information of the LOS component via the physics-based model and robustness by exploiting the geometric imprint of multipath components independent of the propagation channel via the data-driven model. In a challenging numerical experiment involving obstructed LOS situations to all anchors, we show that the proposed sequential algorithm significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods and attains the posterior Cram&#x0027;er-Rao lower bound even with training data limited to local regions.
