Dynamic SLAM Dense Point Cloud Map by Fusion of Semantic Information and Bayesian Moving Probability

Most existing Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) systems rely on the assumption of static environments to achieve reliable and efficient mapping. However, such methods often suffer from degraded localization accuracy and mapping consistency in dynamic settings, as they lack explicit mechanisms to distinguish between static and dynamic elements. To overcome this limitation, we present BMP-SLAM, a vision-based SLAM approach that integrates semantic segmentation and Bayesian motion estimation to robustly handle dynamic indoor scenes. To enable real-time dynamic object detection, we integrate YOLOv5, a semantic segmentation network that identifies and localizes dynamic regions within the environment, into a dedicated dynamic target detection thread. Simultaneously, the data association Bayesian mobile probability proposed in this paper effectively eliminates dynamic feature points and successfully reduces the impact of dynamic targets in the environment on the SLAM system. To enhance complex indoor robotic navigation, the proposed system integrates semantic keyframe information with dynamic object detection outputs to reconstruct high-fidelity 3D point cloud maps of indoor environments. The evaluation conducted on the TUM RGB-D dataset indicates that the performance of BMP-SLAM is superior to that of ORB-SLAM3, with the trajectory tracking accuracy improved by 96.35%. Comparative evaluations demonstrate that the proposed system achieves superior performance in dynamic environments, exhibiting both lower trajectory drift and enhanced positioning precision relative to state-of-the-art dynamic SLAM methods.

Abstract

Most existing Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) systems rely on the assumption of static environments to achieve reliable and efficient mapping. However, such methods often suffer from degraded localization accuracy and mapping consistency in dynamic settings, as they lack explicit mechanisms to distinguish between static and dynamic elements. To overcome this limitation, we present BMP-SLAM, a vision-based SLAM approach that integrates semantic segmentation and Bayesian motion estimation to robustly handle dynamic indoor scenes. To enable real-time dynamic object detection, we integrate YOLOv5, a semantic segmentation network that identifies and localizes dynamic regions within the environment, into a dedicated dynamic target detection thread. Simultaneously, the data association Bayesian mobile probability proposed in this paper effectively eliminates dynamic feature points and successfully reduces the impact of dynamic targets in the environment on the SLAM system. To enhance complex indoor robotic navigation, the proposed system integrates semantic keyframe information with dynamic object detection outputs to reconstruct high-fidelity 3D point cloud maps of indoor environments. The evaluation conducted on the TUM RGB-D dataset indicates that the performance of BMP-SLAM is superior to that of ORB-SLAM3, with the trajectory tracking accuracy improved by 96.35%. Comparative evaluations demonstrate that the proposed system achieves superior performance in dynamic environments, exhibiting both lower trajectory drift and enhanced positioning precision relative to state-of-the-art dynamic SLAM methods.
