Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Appearance-based batch nonlinear optimization techniques for simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) have been highly successful in assisting robot motion estimation. Traditionally, these techniques are applied in a single privileged coordinate frame, which can become computationally expensive over long distances, particularly when a loop closure requires the adjustment of many pose variables. Recent approaches to the problem have shown that a completely relative coordinate framework can be used to incrementally find a close approximation of the full maximum likelihood solution in constant time. However, due to the nature of these discrete-time techniques, the state size becomes intractable when challenged with high-rate sensors. We propose moving the relative coordinate formulation of SLAM into continuous time by estimating the velocity profile of the robot. We derive the relative formulation of the continuous-time robot trajectory and formulate an estimator for the SLAM problem using temporal basis functions. Although we do not yet take advantage of large-scale loop closures, we intentionally use a relative formulation to set the stage for future work that will close loops in constant time. We show how the estimator can be used in a window-style filter to incrementally find the batch solution in constant time. The estimator is validated on a set of appearance-based feature measurements acquired using a two-axis scanning laser rangefinder over a 1.1km trajectory.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
