M2DP: A novel 3D point cloud descriptor and its application in loop closure detection

L He, X Wang, H Zhang - 2016 IEEE/RSJ International …, 2016 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper, we present a novel global descriptor M2DP for 3D point clouds, and apply it to
the problem of loop closure detection. In M2DP, we project a 3D point cloud to multiple 2D …

CRTF-MoeICP: A robust coarse-to-fine reflector-based LiDAR indoor positioning algorithm

M Yao, Z Shao, Y Su, D Wei, F Zhang, L Wang - Mechatronics, 2024 - Elsevier
Abstract The reflector-based Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) positioning method is
susceptible to environmental interferences, resulting in instability. This instability not only …
