DynaSLAM II: Tightly-Coupled Multi-Object Tracking and SLAM

Berta Bescos, Carlos Campos, Juan D. Tardós +1

The assumption of scene rigidity is common in visual SLAM algorithms. However, it limits their applicability in populated real-world environments. Furthermore, most scenarios inclu…

Empty Cities: a Dynamic-Object-Invariant Space for Visual SLAM

Berta Bescos, Cesar Cadena, Jose Neira

In this paper we present a data-driven approach to obtain the static image of a scene, eliminating dynamic objects that might have been present at the time of traversing the scene…

Empty Cities: Image Inpainting for a Dynamic-Object-Invariant Space

Berta Bescos, José Neira, Roland Siegwart +1

In this paper we present an end-to-end deep learning framework to turn images that show dynamic content, such as vehicles or pedestrians, into realistic static frames. This objecti…

Dynamic Objects Segmentation for Visual Localization in Urban Environments

Guoxiang Zhou, Berta Bescos, Marcin Dymczyk +3

Visual localization and mapping is a crucial capability to address many challenges in mobile robotics. It constitutes a robust, accurate and cost-effective approach for local and g…

DynaSLAM: Tracking, Mapping and Inpainting in Dynamic Scenes

Berta Bescos, José M. Fácil, Javier Civera +1

The assumption of scene rigidity is typical in SLAM algorithms. Such a strong assumption limits the use of most visual SLAM systems in populated real-world environments, which are…

Sparse Optimization for Robust and Efficient Loop Closing

Yasir Latif, Guoquan Huang, John Leonard +1

It is essential for a robot to be able to detect revisits or loop closures for long-term visual navigation.A key insight explored in this work is that the loop-closing event inhere…

Past, Present, and Future of Simultaneous Localization And Mapping: Towards the Robust-Perception Age

Cesar Cadena, Luca Carlone, Henry Carrillo +5

Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM)consists in the concurrent construction of a model of the environment (the map), and the estimation of the state of the robot moving wit…
