The invention discloses a low-overlapping-rate
point cloud registration method based on topology-metric decoupling, and belongs to the technical field of
computer vision and three-dimensional reconstruction, and the method comprises the steps: scanning an object through a three-dimensional
laser scanning collection terminal, collecting point clouds at two different angles as a source
point cloud and a target
point cloud, and achieving high-robustness registration in a difficult scene with an extremely low overlapping rate; according to the method, through the asymmetric
association strategy, the zero solution problem under the low overlapping rate is solved through the one-way matching union set, and the
recall rate is remarkably increased; meanwhile, through a DGTG geometric
pruning and probability manifold optimization mechanism, a
voxel quantization error is eliminated by using anisotropic
covariance and Lie algebra iteration, a
translation error and a
rotation error are greatly reduced, and a precision
bottleneck caused by voxelization is effectively broken through. According to the method, the existence of a solution can be ensured under the condition that the overlapping rate is extremely low,
voxel quantization errors can be eliminated through manifold optimization based on
covariance, and high-precision and high-efficiency registration of low-overlapping-rate point clouds is achieved.
