The invention discloses a self-adaptive
point cloud registration method based on mixed geometric constraint and
statistical filtering, and belongs to the technical field of
machine vision and three-dimensional
point cloud processing. According to the method, an improved coarse-to-fine matching strategy is provided for solving the problems that a traditional distance signature
algorithm is large in calculation redundancy, sensitive to
noise and lack of scale adaptability. The method comprises the following specific steps: firstly, calculating normal vectors of a source
point cloud and a target point cloud, carrying out rapid pre-screening by utilizing a normal included angle constraint, and removing candidate point pairs with inconsistent geometric features; secondly, a robust distance signature based on bilateral percentile truncation is constructed, and
outlier noisy points in a
distance spectrum are stripped through a statistical method; and finally, adopting a normalized dynamic matching threshold as a criterion to realize
adaptive matching of point clouds with different densities, and solving a
rigid transformation matrix through
singular value decomposition (SVD). According to the method, the robustness and the calculation efficiency of point cloud registration in
noise interference and partially overlapped scenes are remarkably improved.
