VinePT-Map: Pole-Trunk Semantic Mapping for Resilient Autonomous Robotics in Vineyards
- 以藤蔓主干和支撑柱为持久地标,构建抗季节变化的语义地图
- 仅用低成本传感器实现厘米级定位精度,跨季节误差低于15厘米
- 适合需要长期运行的农业机器人,尤其适用于重复结构果园
自主机器人在农业环境中的长期可靠部署仍面临感知混淆、季节性变化及作物冠层动态等挑战。葡萄园因重复的行结构和物候阶段间的显著视觉差异,成为典型难题,限制了传统基于特征的定位与建图方法的鲁棒性。本文提出VinePT-Map,一种利用葡萄藤主干和支撑柱作为持久结构地标的语义建图框架,实现跨季节、抗干扰的机器人定位。该方法将建图问题建模为因子图,融合GPS、IMU与RGB-D观测,通过利用葡萄园结构的鲁棒几何约束提升精度。基于实例分割与跟踪的高效感知流水线,结合聚类滤波进行异常值剔除与位姿优化,可在低功耗设备上实现准确地标检测。为验证流程,我们构建了一个多季节的主干与支柱分割及跟踪数据集。大量实地实验表明,该方法在不同季节下均表现出高鲁棒性与准确性,适用于农业环境中长期自主运行的机器人系统。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Reliable long-term deployment of autonomous robots in agricultural environments remains challenging due to perceptual aliasing, seasonal variability, and the dynamic nature of crop canopies. Vineyards, characterized by repetitive row structures and significant visual changes across phenological stages, represent a pivotal field challenge, limiting the robustness of conventional feature-based localization and mapping approaches. This paper introduces VinePT-Map, a semantic mapping framework that leverages vine trunks and support poles as persistent structural landmarks to enable season-agnostic and resilient robot localization. The proposed method formulates the mapping problem as a factor graph, integrating GPS, IMU, and RGB-D observations through robust geometrical constraints that exploit vineyard structure. An efficient perception pipeline based on instance segmentation and tracking, combined with a clustering filter for outlier rejection and pose refinement, enables accurate landmark detection using low-cost sensors and onboard computation. To validate the pipeline, we present a multi-season dataset for trunk and pole segmentation and tracking. Extensive field experiments conducted across diverse seasons demonstrate the robustness and accuracy of the proposed approach, highlighting its suitability for long-term autonomous operation in agricultural environments.
