A LiDAR-intensity SLAM and loop closure detection method using an intensity cylindrical-projection shape context descriptor

LiDAR Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) is able to map unknown scene while online estimating the LiDAR’s pose. Traditional LiDAR SLAM frameworks mainly rely on geometric features in the environments, but ignore LiDAR intensity information, leading to low accuracy in scenes with sparse env...
