Why Sample Space Matters: Keyframe Sampling Optimization for LiDAR-based Place Recognition

no code implementations3 Oct 2024 Nikolaos Stathoulopoulos, Vidya Sumathy, Christoforos Kanellakis, George Nikolakopoulos

We then present a novel keyframe sampling approach for LiDAR-based place recognition, which focuses on redundancy minimization and information preservation in the hyper-dimensional descriptor space.

BOX3D: Lightweight Camera-LiDAR Fusion for 3D Object Detection and Localization

no code implementations27 Aug 2024 Mario A. V. Saucedo, Nikolaos Stathoulopoulos, Vidya Sumathy, Christoforos Kanellakis, George Nikolakopoulos

Object detection and global localization play a crucial role in robotics, spanning across a great spectrum of applications from autonomous cars to multi-layered 3D Scene Graphs for semantic scene understanding.

Belief Scene Graphs: Expanding Partial Scenes with Objects through Computation of Expectation

no code implementations6 Feb 2024 Mario A. V. Saucedo, Akash Patel, Akshit Saradagi, Christoforos Kanellakis, George Nikolakopoulos

As no database of 3D scene graphs exists for the training of the novel CECI model, we present a novel methodology for generating a 3D scene graph dataset based on semantically annotated real-life 3D spaces.

A Subterranean Virtual Cave World for Gazebo based on the DARPA SubT Challenge

3 code implementations17 Apr 2020 Anton Koval, Christoforos Kanellakis, Emil Vidmark, Jakub Haluska, George Nikolakopoulos

Subterranean environments with lots of obstacles, including narrow passages, large voids, rock falls and absence of illumination were always challenging for control, navigation, and perception of mobile robots.
