📝笔记:SLAM常见问题(二):重定位Relocalisation

(Updated: )

可以说整个重定位就是一个精心设计的解算当前帧位姿的模块,秉持着不抛弃不放弃的精神,ORB-SLAM的作者简直把特征匹配压榨到了极致,仿佛在说“小伙子你有很多匹配点的,不要放弃,我们优化一下位姿再找找匹配点呗”。

原理如下流程图:

重定位

重定位

代码如下:

bool Tracking::Relocalization()
{
    // Compute Bag of Words Vector
    // 步骤1:计算当前帧特征点的Bow映射,能够得到当前帧的词袋向量以及featureVector
    // 可用于SearchByBoW寻找匹配特征点
    mCurrentFrame.ComputeBoW();

    // Relocalization is performed when tracking is lost
    // Track Lost: Query KeyFrame Database for keyframe candidates for relocalisation
    // 步骤2:找到与当前帧相似的候选关键帧,
    // 这里会通过查询关键帧数据库进行快速查找与当前帧相似的候选重定位帧vpCandidateKFs
    vector<KeyFrame*> vpCandidateKFs = mpKeyFrameDB->DetectRelocalizationCandidates(&mCurrentFrame);

    if(vpCandidateKFs.empty())
        return false;

    const int nKFs = vpCandidateKFs.size();

    // We perform first an ORB matching with each candidate
    // If enough matches are found we setup a PnP solver
    ORBmatcher matcher(0.75,true);

    vector<PnPsolver*> vpPnPsolvers;
    vpPnPsolvers.resize(nKFs);

    vector<vector<MapPoint*> > vvpMapPointMatches;
    vvpMapPointMatches.resize(nKFs);

    vector<bool> vbDiscarded;
    vbDiscarded.resize(nKFs);

    int nCandidates=0;

    for(int i=0; i<nKFs; i++)
    {
        KeyFrame* pKF = vpCandidateKFs[i];
        if(pKF->isBad())
            vbDiscarded[i] = true;
        else
        {
            // 步骤3:通过BoW进行匹配
            // 利用SearchByBoW查找当前帧与关键帧的匹配点vvpMapPointMatches
            int nmatches = matcher.SearchByBoW(pKF,mCurrentFrame,vvpMapPointMatches[i]);
            // 如果匹配点数小于15个点,跳过
            if(nmatches<15)
            {
                vbDiscarded[i] = true;
                continue;
            }
            // 如果匹配点数大于15个点,建立当前帧与关键帧之间的PNP求解器;
            // 仅仅如建立这个求解器,还未求解
            else
            {
                // 初始化PnPsolver
                PnPsolver* pSolver = new PnPsolver(mCurrentFrame,vvpMapPointMatches[i]);
                pSolver->SetRansacParameters(0.99,10,300,4,0.5,5.991);
                vpPnPsolvers[i] = pSolver;
                nCandidates++;
            }
        }
    }

    // Alternatively perform some iterations of P4P RANSAC
    // Until we found a camera pose supported by enough inliers
    bool bMatch = false;
    ORBmatcher matcher2(0.9,true);

    // 如果候选关键帧数大于0且没有重定位成功
    while(nCandidates>0 && !bMatch)
    {
        for(int i=0; i<nKFs; i++)
        {
            // 若当前候选关键帧与当前帧匹配数量小于15,跳过
            if(vbDiscarded[i])
                continue;

            // Perform 5 Ransac Iterations
            vector<bool> vbInliers;
            int nInliers;
            bool bNoMore;

            // 步骤4:通过EPnP算法估计初始位姿
            PnPsolver* pSolver = vpPnPsolvers[i];
            cv::Mat Tcw = pSolver->iterate(5,bNoMore,vbInliers,nInliers);

            // If Ransac reachs max. iterations discard keyframe
            // 若RANSAC失败,当前候选关键帧被提出候选帧
            if(bNoMore)
            {

            if(!Tcw.empty())
