Description

Point cloud registration method based on characteristic point normal and global point cloud curvature optimization
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of machine vision point cloud registration, in particular to a point cloud registration method based on feature point normal and global point cloud curvature optimization.
Background
The point cloud is used as a description method of the surface profile of the object, and can well represent the geometric characteristics and the spatial position of the object. Along with the rapid development of three-dimensional vision, the point cloud is widely used in the fields of reverse engineering, robotics, automatic driving and the like. In the process of actually acquiring the point cloud data, due to factors such as equipment, environment and the like, only a local area of an object to be detected can be scanned by one scanning or a single sensor, so that the scanning is required to be performed at different angles, and then the scanned point clouds with different visual angles are registered to restore the complete appearance of the object to be detected. The point cloud registration is a process of unifying two groups of point clouds under the same reference coordinate system by solving a transformation matrix between the two groups of corresponding point clouds. The existing point cloud registration algorithm generally cannot solve the problem that the initial pose is prone to being in local optimum under the condition of non-ideal initial pose, and meanwhile registration speed and efficiency are reduced due to disorder in the registration iteration process, so that the efficient and rapid point cloud registration algorithm is always a hot spot for mass scholars to study.
Point cloud registration has been widely studied. In existing methods, the development of registration methods can generally be divided into two categories: feature-based and optimization-based registration algorithms. Feature-based registration algorithms focus mainly on neighborhood information (e.g., points, lines, or surfaces in a point cloud). Feature-based registration is a three-dimensional extension of image matching, which includes two main steps: feature matching and geometric estimation.
In feature matching, 3D feature keypoints, such as internal shape features (ISS), keypointNet, and USIP, are first detected from the point cloud by a feature detector. Each keypoint is then encoded into a compact feature vector by descriptor-based local shape analysis. And finally, establishing a corresponding point-to-point relation by calculating the pairwise similarity score and chi-square test. In geometric estimation, six degrees of freedom (DoF) rigid transformations are estimated mainly based on robust fitting techniques.
Most of the existing optimization-based registration methods are realized by minimizing geometric projection errors through two processes: corresponding search and transform estimates. Typical optimization-based methods include ICP variant-based, graph model-based, probability model-based, and semi-positive registration methods.
Currently, there are many methods for realizing the registration of 3D point clouds, and in general, most point cloud registration methods adopt a coarse-to-fine strategy, and are mainly classified into coarse registration based on local features and fine registration algorithms based on iterative optimization according to scales. The ICP algorithm (Iterative Closest Point iterative closest point algorithm) is a method for obtaining an optimal solution by using a constraint iterative calculation mode, and is the most widely applied and mature algorithm at present. The standard ICP algorithm establishes the distance error measurement of the closest point pair through Euclidean distance, minimizes to solve the new relative transformation, and can obtain registration results with higher precision after continuous iteration. However, good operation of the ICP algorithm requires an approximate close initial position of the reference point cloud and the target point cloud; meanwhile, due to the direction disorder in the iteration process, the iteration error is easy to be trapped in a local minimum value, so that the convergence speed is slow, and the final registration accuracy is reduced.
