A multi-resolution ICP with heuristic closest point search for fast and robust 3D registration of range images
Abstract
The iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm is widely used for the registration of 3D geometric data. One of the main drawbacks of the algorithm is its quadratic time complexity O(N/sup 2/) with the number of points N. Consequently, several methods have been proposed to accelerate the process. We present a new solution for the speeding up of the ICP algorithm and special care is taken to avoid any tradeoff with the quality of the registration. The proposed solution combines a coarse to fine multiresolution approach with the neighbor search algorithm. The multiresolution approach permits to successively improve the registration using finer levels of representation and the neighbor search algorithm speeds up the closest point search by using a heuristic approach. Both multiresolution scheme and neighbor search algorithm main features are presented. Confirming the success of the proposed solution, typical results show that this combination permits to create a very fast ICP algorithm, with a closest point search complexity of O(N), while preserving the matching quality.

[62] further combines the above with a coarse-to-fine hierarchical search technique. Use of down-sampled data speeds up the first few iterations of ICP; the resolution is gradually increased to obtain more reliable alignment.

[62] gives a fast ICP algorithm based on localization. They restrict the search for a new CPC at each iteration to the local neighborhood of the correspondence in the previous iteration, avoiding a global exhaustive search.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
