This invention relates to a multi-dimensional confidence-based point-line fusion SLAM method and
system for visually degraded environments, belonging to the fields of
computer vision and
robot navigation technology. The invention constructs a nonlinear mapping function based on two-dimensional image entropy, dynamically adjusts the gradient threshold and
Gaussian smoothing parameters of the line
feature extraction algorithm, and introduces a sudden illumination safety mode to enhance adaptability to extreme environments. It performs photometric consistency
verification on point features after
optical flow tracking, performs
region growing on line features using the aforementioned adaptive parameters, and proposes a hierarchical non-convex
relaxation algorithm guided by dual weights of geometric residuals and pixel gradients for
noise-resistant fitting. It establishes a linear inverse mapping mechanism between front-end feature confidence and back-end optimization information matrix, dynamically adjusting residual weights according to feature quality. In motion-blurred and illumination-changing environments, it can effectively extract high-quality features and perform tight-
coupling optimization, improving the positioning accuracy and speed of the SLAM
system in weak-texture and drastically changing illumination environments.
