摘要

When dealing with low-quality point clouds or low overlap areas, there are often issues of limited accuracy and difficult registration. The discriminative ability of local descriptors is significantly affected by the quality of point clouds, especially sensitive to issues such as partial occlusion and uneven density. This article proposes a globally robust registration algorithm for occlusion and low overlap point clouds to address this issue. Firstly, by improving local descriptors based on LDASH, the robustness of descriptors to occlusion and uneven density is enhanced; At the same time, a chi square distance metric designed specifically for histogram descriptors is introduced to further improve the effectiveness of descriptor matching. Next, a consensus set filter and a matching aggregator are developed to eliminate erroneous correspondences and reconstruct accurate global correspondences, in order to address the challenge of obtaining correct matches in low overlap situations. Finally, the optimal transformation matrix is obtained through optimization calculations. The experimental results show that it can achieve point cloud registration with an overlap rate as low as 0.21. The experiments on B3R, U3M, K3R, and S3R datasets demonstrate that in the low overlap rate (0.5 to 0.21) point cloud registration problem, the rotation error can be stably controlled within 5 °. Compared to traditional corresponding propagation mechanisms, the algorithm proposed in this paper can achieve a time efficiency improvement of nearly 4 to 10 times, while achieving a search accuracy of 85% or even 100% for correct matching relationships.
