Abstract

The International Journal of Robotics Research, Ahead of Print.
Consistent maps are key for most autonomous mobile robots, and they often use SLAM approaches to build such maps. Loop closures via place recognition help to maintain accurate pose estimates by mitigating global drift, and are thus key for realizing an ...
