NDT-Map-Code: A 3D global descriptor for real-time loop closure detection in lidar SLAM

Loop-closure detection, also known as place recognition, aiming to identify previously visited locations, is an essential component of a SLAM system. Existing research on lidar-based loop closure heavily relies on dense point cloud and 360 FOV lidars. This paper proposes an out-of-the-box NDT (Norma…
