Multi-robot Object SLAM with Distributed Variational Inference

[Paper]

Run the code

To run the algorithm on KITTI sequence 00. Change consensus_average value in the corresponding config file to switch between original MSCKF and our propose distributed MSCKF with consensus averaging.

python run.py --dataset kitti --data_id 00

To run it on simulation with 15 robots. Change consensus_average value in the corresponding config file to switch between original MSCKF and our propose distributed MSCKF with consensus averaging.

python run.py --dataset simulated --data_id nrobot_15

Evaluation

To evaluate the results on KITTI sequence 00

python evaluate_results.py --dataset kitti --data_id 00

To evaluate the results on simulation with 15 robots

python evaluate_results.py --dataset simulated --data_id nrobot_15
