室外半静态环境下基于快速会话对齐的地图更新方法

Map Updating Method Based on Fast Session Alignment in Outdoor Semi-static Environment

  • 摘要: 目前室外半静态环境下的地图更新算法普遍存在速度较慢,无法实时运行的问题。为此,本文提出一种基于会话快速对齐的地图更新方法,目的是提高会话对齐的速度,保证地图与环境的一致性。首先引入高斯曲率来稀疏化点云以减小点云规模,并进行体素化点云配准,利用所获取的约束构造因子图;然后,引入历史约束实现局部会话的因子图修补,解决因回环检测和点云配准失效导致的因子图构造失败问题;最后,通过因子图优化实现会话对齐,并基于对齐的会话进行地图更新。在MulRan数据集和LT-ParkingLot数据集上评估了该方法,其会话对齐频率达到了13 Hz,相较于原方法提升了80%,可实现在工厂等经典半静态场景下实时对齐会话。通过实验证明了本文方法在地图更新方面的有效性。

     

    Abstract: Map updating algorithms in outdoor semi-static environments generally suffer from slow speeds and inability to run in real time. Therefore, a map updating method based on fast session alignment is proposed to improve the session alignment speed and ensure consistency between the map and the environment. Firstly, Gaussian curvature is introduced to sparsify point clouds and reduce their size, followed by voxel based point cloud registration, and the obtained constraints are used to construct factor maps. Then, historical constraints are introduced to implement factor graph repair for local sessions, solving the problem of factor graph construction failure caused by loop detection and point cloud registration failure.Finally, session alignment is achieved through factor graph optimization, and map updating is performed based on the aligned sessions. The method is evaluated on MulRan dataset and LT-ParkingLot dataset, and its session alignment frequency reaches 13 Hz, which is 80% higher than the original method, and sufficient for real-time session alignment in classic semi-static scenarios such as factories. The effectiveness of the proposed method in map updating is demonstrated through experiments.
