A comparison of loop closing techniques in monocular SLAM

Loop closure detection systems for monocular SLAM come in three broad categories: (i) map-to-map, (ii) image-to-image and (iii) image-to-map. In this paper, we have chosen an implementation of each and performed experiments allowing the three approaches to be compared. The sequences used include bot...
