Loop closure detection has the potential to correct the drift of trajectories and build a global consistent map in LiDAR SLAM, however it remains a challenging problem in outdoor environment due to the sparsity of 3D point clouds data, large-scale scenes and moving objects. Inspired by the way humans perceive the environment through recognizing objects and identifying their relations, this paper p...
