Direct Sparse Mapping
Not on the map. Why?
Abstract (arXiv)
Photometric bundle adjustment, PBA, accurately estimates geometry from video. However, current PBA systems have a temporary map that cannot manage scene reobservations. We present, DSM, a full monocular visual SLAM based on PBA. Its persistent map handles reobservations, yielding the most accurate results up to date on EuRoC for a direct method.
