DPF-SLAM:Dense semantic SLAM based on dynamic probability fusion in dynamic environments

With the development of simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) technology, Dynamic SLAM has been a challenging research topic. This paper presents a dynamic probability fusion SLAM (DPF-SLAM) algorithm, which adds a semantic segmentation thread and a dense reconstruction thread to ORB-SLAM2. We integrate dynamic prior probability obtained by semantic segmentation with dynamic probability obtained by dynamic point detection, which can decrease the effect of dynamic objects on the localization accuracy and meanwhile achieve the dense reconstruction of a static background. We evaluate DPF-SLAM system on the public TUM RGBD dataset. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has better localization accuracy than DS-SLAM and ORB-SLAM2, which are two relatively new algorithms in this area, and can obtain a good dense reconstruction effect. Moreover, through the performance comparison with our previous work, it is found that the algorithm speed and positioning accuracy are improved.
