3DS-SLAM: A 3D Object Detection based Semantic SLAM towards Dynamic
  Indoor Environments
Ghanta Sai Krishna Kundrapu Supriya Sabur Baidya
The existence of variable factors within the environment can cause a decline
in camera localization accuracy, as it violates the fundamental assumption of a
static environment in Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) algorithms.
Recent semantic SLAM systems towards dynamic environments either rely solely on
2D semantic information, or solely on geometric information, or combine their
results in a loosely integrated manner. In this research paper, we introduce
3DS-SLAM, 3D Semantic SLAM, tailored for dynamic scenes with visual 3D object
detection. The 3DS-SLAM is a tightly-coupled algorithm resolving both semantic
and geometric constraints sequentially. We designed a 3D part-aware hybrid
transformer for point cloud-based object detection to identify dynamic objects.
Subsequently, we propose a dynamic feature filter based on HDBSCAN clustering
to extract objects with significant absolute depth differences. When compared
against ORB-SLAM2, 3DS-SLAM exhibits an average improvement of 98.01% across
the dynamic sequences of the TUM RGB-D dataset. Furthermore, it surpasses the
performance of the other four leading SLAM systems designed for dynamic
environments.
