Abstract
Abstract. Recent advances in precise navigation have extensively utilized the integration of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and Inertial Navigation System (INS), particularly in the domain of intelligent vehicles. However, the efficacy of such navigation systems is considerably compromised by the reflection and multipath disruptions of non-light-of-sight (NLOS) signals. Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR)-based odometry, an active perception-based sensor known for its precise 3D measurements, has become increasingly prevalent in augmenting navigation systems. Nonetheless, the assimilation of LiDAR odometry with GNSS/INS systems presents substantial challenges. Addressing these challenges, this study introduces a two-phase sensor fusion (TPSF) approach that synergistically combines GNSS positioning, LiDAR odometry, and IMU pre-integration through a dual-stage sensor fusion process. The initial stage employs an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to amalgamate the GNSS solution with IMU Mechanization, facilitating the estimation of IMU biases and system initialization. Subsequently, the second stage integrates scan-to-map LiDAR odometry with IMU mechanization to support continuous LiDAR factor estimation. Factor graph optimization (FGO) is then utilized for the comprehensive fusion of LiDAR factors, IMU pre-integration, and GNSS solutions. The efficacy of the proposed methodology is corroborated through rigorous testing on a demanding trajectory from an urbanized open-source dataset, with the system demonstrating a notable enhancement in performance compared to the state-of-the-art algorithms, achieving a translational Standard Deviation (STD) of 1.269 meters.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
