Description
Summary:Visual simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is a critical technology for autonomous navigation in dynamic environments. However, traditional SLAM algorithms often struggle to maintain accuracy in highly dynamic environments, where elements undergo significant, rapid, and unpredictable changes, leading to asymmetric information acquisition. Aiming to improve the accuracy of the SLAM algorithm in a dynamic environment, a dynamic SLAM algorithm based on deep learning is proposed. Firstly, YOLOv10n is used to improve the front end of the system, and semantic information is added to each frame of the image. Then, ORB-SLAM2 is used to extract feature points in each region of each frame and retrieve semantic information from YOLOv10n. Finally, through the map construction thread, the dynamic object feature points extracted by YOLOv10n are eliminated, and the construction of a static map is realized. The experimental results show that the accuracy of the proposed algorithm is improved by more than 96% compared with the state-of-the-art ORB-SLAM2 in a highly dynamic environment. Compared with other dynamic SLAM algorithms, the proposed algorithm has improved both accuracy and runtime.
