Long-term Place Recognition through Worst-case Graph Matching to Integrate Landmark Appearances and Spatial Relationships

Peng Gao,Hao Zhang,Peng Gao,Hao Zhang

Place recognition is an important component for simultaneously localization and mapping in a variety of robotics applications. Recently, several approaches using landmark information to represent a place showed promising performance to address long-term environment changes. However, previous approaches do not explicitly consider changes of the landmarks, i,e., old landmarks may disappear and new o...
