Problems solved by technology

However, its method has great application limitations. The extraction of these features takes a lot of time. At the same time, in scenes with obvious lighting changes, these methods ignore useful information in the environment, resulting in low accuracy of closed-loop detection.

Embodiment Construction

[0031] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments and the accompanying drawings, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.

[0032] Such as Figure 1~2 As shown, an improved method for visual SLAM loop closure detection based on instance segmentation, including the following steps:

[0033] (1) Use the RGB-D camera to obtain RGB information and depth information, and divide the collected data set samples into multiple equal data sets;

[0034] (2) Send each picture in the data set to CNN for feature extraction;

[0035] (3) On the last layer of convolution featuremap, the ROI is generated by RPN, and n suggestion windows are fixed for each picture, where n is set to 300;

[0036] (4) Through the RoIAlign layer, each proposal window generates a fixed-size featuremap;

[0037] (5) Get three output vectors, the first is softmax classification, the second is the bounding box regression of each ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a visual SLAM loopback detection improvement method based on instance segmentation. Instance segmentation is carried out on an image through a Mask R-CNN framework, and three improvement measures combined with the example segmentation are provided, so that the loop-back detection problem of the mobile intelligent robot in visual navigation is solved, and the robot is more accurate in mobile mapping; compared with the prior art, the Mask R-CNN is used for off-line training, and the examples in the image are finely segmented. The segmented instances with relatively low correlation are selected and removed, so that the stability and the accuracy of the whole loop detection are improved, and the high efficiency and the accuracy of the intelligent mobile robot navigationare improved; besides, in the loop detection, three detection methods combined with an instance segmentation framework are used for describing an image space relationship, so that the loop detectionis further inspected. Due to the two characteristics, the accuracy of the whole system is remarkably improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of instance segmentation and visual SLAM, in particular to an improved method for loop closure detection of visual SLAM based on instance segmentation. Background technique [0002] At present, with the further development of mobile robot systems, visual simultaneous localization and mapping (visual SLAM) has been highly valued by the government, society, and enterprises, and it has attracted the active participation of many manufacturers in related industrial chains and links. Visual SLAM obtains image information through binocular cameras to achieve functions such as establishing the environment during motion and estimating its own motion without prior information about the environment. Under the interference of complex environments, how to ensure and improve the mapping accuracy of mobile robots is a key application basic problem in the industrialization process of visual SLAM. [0003] SLAM is Simultane...
