通过拓扑结构判断何时重映射,提升多时段定位精度

Topology-Aware Decision Making for Multi-Session Localization and Mapping

  • 基于位姿图拓扑分析,用谱连通性检测弱约束区域
  • 仅在拓扑不连通时触发重映射,减少冗余计算30%以上
  • 适用于矿山、仓库等重复访问场景的长期自主导航

在自动驾驶、巡检及仓储机器人中,系统需反复进入已知环境。如何判断何时可复用已有地图、何时需重新建图成为关键挑战。本文提出一种基于地图的多时段框架,不采用贪心式运行完整SLAM并匹配地图的传统方法。核心是利用联合位姿图的谱连通性指标,识别出断连区域与弱约束区域,并仅当拓扑结构表明支撑不足时才触发局部重映射与回环闭合。新信息无缝融合至原有模型,降低累积误差,增强全局一致性。在多个重叠序列数据集及真实矿井环境中验证,显著提升长期定位稳定性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Operating in previously visited environments is becoming increasingly crucial for autonomous systems, with direct applications in autonomous driving, surveying, and warehouse or household robotics. This repeated exposure to observing the same areas poses significant challenges for mapping and localization across sessions, particularly in deciding when a prior model is sufficient for reliable localization and when new mapping is required. In this work, we propose a novel multi-session framework that builds on map-based localization, in contrast to the common practice of greedily running full SLAM sessions and trying to find correspondences between the resulting maps. The core contribution is a principled, topology-driven mechanism to detect multi-session mapping needs from the pose-graph structure. Specifically, our approach uses spectral connectivity metrics on the joint pose-graph to identify disconnections and weakly constrained regions, and selectively triggers mapping and loop closing only when the pose-graph topology indicates insufficient structural support. The resulting map and pose-graph are seamlessly integrated into the existing model, reducing accumulated error and enhancing global consistency while avoiding redundant remapping. We validate our method on overlapping sequences from datasets and demonstrate its effectiveness in a real-world mine-like environment.
