A Partial Sparsification Scheme for Visual-Inertial Odometry

Author: Wang

Year: 2020

Notes:

  • here the dense prior on robot pose is kept, while the dense prior on landmark only is sparsified: recover only landmark-to-pose pseudo factors
  • marginalization can cause inacuraccy as the linearization point of the prior is fixed
  • when a KF is marginalized:
    • the pose, velocity and biases are marginalized into a dense prior H_d as in OKVIS & co
    • the landmark only connected to the KF are marginalized into another dense prior H_o that will be partially sparsified
  • Uses NFR to sparsify H_o (is J really invertible?)

Results:

  • Way faster than MKaess solution
