- 用视觉词的空间共现构建词组袋,增强特征表达
- 在Bicocca25b数据集上平均处理速度16毫秒/图像
- 适合对实时性与鲁棒性要求高的机器人导航场景
回环检测对同步定位与地图构建(SLAM)系统至关重要,可减少累积漂移并保证全局一致性。然而,在狭窄管道等感知混淆环境中,传统方法因向量量化、特征稀疏和重复纹理而表现不佳,现有方案又常伴随高计算开销。本文提出词组袋(BoWG)方法,通过引入词组捕捉视觉词的空间共现与邻近关系,构建在线词典,显著提升精度-召回率表现。结合概率转移模型思想,设计自适应时序一致性机制,直接融入相似性计算。此外,配备特征分布分析模块与专用后验证机制,进一步强化性能。在公开数据集及自建的狭窄管道数据集上评估表明,BoWG优于主流传统与学习型方法,在精度-召回率与计算效率方面均领先。该方法具备良好可扩展性,在包含17,565张图像的Bicocca25b数据集上实现每图像平均16毫秒的处理速度。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Loop closure is critical in Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) systems to reduce accumulative drift and ensure global mapping consistency. However, conventional methods struggle in perceptually aliased environments, such as narrow pipes, due to vector quantization, feature sparsity, and repetitive textures, while existing solutions often incur high computational costs. This paper presents Bag-of-Word-Groups (BoWG), a novel loop closure detection method that achieves superior precision-recall, robustness, and computational efficiency. The core innovation lies in the introduction of word groups, which captures the spatial co-occurrence and proximity of visual words to construct an online dictionary. Additionally, drawing inspiration from probabilistic transition models, we incorporate temporal consistency directly into similarity computation with an adaptive scheme, substantially improving precision-recall performance. The method is further strengthened by a feature distribution analysis module and dedicated post-verification mechanisms. To evaluate the effectiveness of our method, we conduct experiments on both public datasets and a confined-pipe dataset we constructed. Results demonstrate that BoWG surpasses state-of-the-art methods, including both traditional and learning-based approaches, in terms of precision-recall and computational efficiency. Our approach also exhibits excellent scalability, achieving an average processing time of 16 ms per image across 17,565 images in the Bicocca25b dataset.
