融合手工与学习特征,在CPU上实现稳定长期视觉定位

Why Not Replace? Sustaining Long-Term Visual Localization via Handcrafted-Learned Feature Collaboration on CPU

  • 手工特征实时跟踪,学习特征选关键帧定位
  • 光照变化下平均误差降低47%,定位更稳定
  • 适合资源受限的工业机器人长期导航

复杂工业环境中鲁棒的长期视觉定位对移动机器人至关重要。现有方法存在局限:手工特征受光照影响大,学习特征计算开销高,语义或标记类方法环境依赖强。手工与学习特征具有相似表示但功能不同:前者擅长连续跟踪,后者在远基线匹配中表现更优。二者互补性促使其融合而非替代。为此,我们提出分层定位框架:利用实时手工特征提取进行相对位姿估计;同时在优化关键帧上选择性使用学习关键点检测实现绝对定位。该设计实现了高效的CPU运行,支持长期视觉定位。实验分三阶段验证:首先通过对比分析确立特征互补性;其次在CPU平台评估各算法阶段延迟;最后在光照变化(包括季节转换和昼夜周期)下测试,结果表明平均误差降低47%,定位一致性显著提升。代码已公开于https://github.com/linyicheng1/ORB_SLAM3_localization。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Robust long-term visual localization in complex industrial environments is critical for mobile robotic systems. Existing approaches face limitations: handcrafted features are illumination-sensitive, learned features are computationally intensive, and semantic- or marker-based methods are environmentally constrained. Handcrafted and learned features share similar representations but differ functionally. Handcrafted features are optimized for continuous tracking, while learned features excel in wide-baseline matching. Their complementarity calls for integration rather than replacement. Building on this, we propose a hierarchical localization framework. It leverages real-time handcrafted feature extraction for relative pose estimation. In parallel, it employs selective learned keypoint detection on optimized keyframes for absolute positioning. This design enables CPU-efficient, long-term visual localization. Experiments systematically progress through three validation phases: Initially establishing feature complementarity through comparative analysis, followed by computational latency profiling across algorithm stages on CPU platforms. Final evaluation under photometric variations (including seasonal transitions and diurnal cycles) demonstrates 47% average error reduction with significantly improved localization consistency. The code implementation is publicly available at https://github.com/linyicheng1/ORB_SLAM3_localization.
