"这篇PDF是ICRA2019会议上发表的一篇关于视觉惯性导航的综述,作者是Guoquan Huang。文章探讨了视觉惯性导航系统(VINS)在移动增强现实、空中导航和自动驾驶等领域的广泛应用,以及由于传感器的互补感知能力和成本、尺寸的降低,VINS成为主流技术的原因。论文全面回顾了该领域的研究工作,并试图提供一个简洁但全面的综述,以填补文献中的空白,满足研究人员和工程师的需求,促进VINS及相关领域的发展。" 本文首先介绍了惯性导航系统(INS)的历史和应用,它广泛用于估计传感器平台(如自动驾驶车辆)的6自由度(位置和方向),特别是在没有GPS信号的环境中,例如水下、室内、城市峡谷和外星球。大多数INS依赖于6轴惯性测量单元(IMU),IMU能测量局部线性加速度和角速度。 随着视觉传感器的普及,视觉惯性导航系统(VINS)应运而生,结合了视觉传感器和IMU的优势。视觉传感器提供高精度的位置信息,尤其是在环境特征丰富的区域,而IMU则能连续提供稳定的动态信息,即使在视觉信息缺失时也能保持定位。VINS通过融合这两种传感器的数据,实现了更准确、更鲁棒的导航性能。 文章接下来可能深入讨论VINS的技术细节,包括数据融合方法(如扩展卡尔曼滤波(EKF)、无迹卡尔曼滤波(UKF)或粒子滤波(PF))、视觉特征提取与匹配、状态估计与优化算法、以及实时性和鲁棒性挑战。VINS的实现通常涉及到关键步骤,如初始化、重定位、漂移校正和传感器误差建模。 VINS在移动机器人、无人机和自动驾驶汽车等领域具有巨大潜力,因为它能够提供连续且可靠的定位信息,即使在GPS信号弱或不可用的情况下也是如此。此外,VINS也是Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM)问题的一个重要组成部分,即在未知环境中同时定位和构建地图,对于自主系统的探索和导航至关重要。 综述还可能涵盖VINS的最新进展,比如视觉惯性里程计(VIO)的发展,它是VINS的一种具体实现形式,专注于实时的精确运动估计。VIO通过优化算法对视觉和惯性测量进行联合估计,提高了定位精度和稳定性。 最后,论文可能会讨论VINS面临的挑战和未来研究方向,包括传感器融合的优化、减少计算复杂性、提高在动态和光照变化环境下的性能,以及如何在大规模环境中保持长期的准确性。通过这样的全面回顾,作者旨在为研究者和工程师提供一个有价值的参考框架,推动VINS技术的进一步发展和应用。

The editors of this book, an accomplished senior data scientist and systems engineer, Thomas Anthony, and an academic leader, Dr. Sang Suh, with broad expertise from artificial intelligence to data analytics, constitute a perfect team to achieve the goal of compiling a book on Big Data and Visual Analytics. For most uninitiated professionals “Big Data” is nothing but a buzzword or a new fad. For the people in the trenches, such as Sang and Thomas, Big Data and associated analytics is a matter of serious business. I am honored to have been given the opportunity to review their compiled volume and write a foreword to it. After reviewing the chapters, I realized that they have developed a comprehensive book for data scientists and students by taking into account both theoretical and practical aspects of this critical and growing area of interest. The presentations are broad and deep as the need arise. In addition to covering all critical processes involving data science, they have uniquely provided very practical visual analytics applications so that the reader learns from the perspective executed as an engineer- ing discipline. This style of presentation is a unique contribution to this new and growing area and places this book at the top of the list of comparable books. The chapters covered are 1. Automated Detection of Central Retinal Vein Occlu- sion Using Convolutional Neural Network, by “Bismita Choudhury, Patrick H. H. Then, and Valliappan Raman”; 2. Swarm Intelligence Applied to Big Data Analytics for Rescue Operations with RASEN Sensor Networks, by “U. John Tanik, Yuehua Wang, and Serkan G. ldal”; 3. Gender Classification Based on Deep Learning, by “Dhiraj Gharana, Sang Suh, and Mingon Kang”; 4. Social and Organizational Culture in Korea and Women’s Career Development, by “Choonhee Yang and Yongman Kwon”; 5. Big Data Framework for Agile Business (BDFAB) as a Basis for Developing Holistic Strategies in Big Data Adoption, by “Bhuvan Unhelkar”; 6. Scalable Gene Sequence Analysis on Spark, by “Muthahar Syed, Jinoh Kim, and Taehyun Hwang”; 7. Big Sensor Data Acquisition and Archiving with Compression, by “Dongeun Lee”; 8. Advanced High Performance Computing for Big Data Local Visual Meaning, “Ozgur Aksu”; 9. Transdisciplinary Benefits of Convergence in Big Data Analytics, “U. John Tanik and Darrell Fielder”; 10. A Big Data Analytics Approach in Medical Image Segmentation Using Deep Convolutional v vi Foreword Neural Networks, by “Zheng Zhang, David Odaibo, and Murat M. Tanik”; 11. Big Data in Libraries, by “Robert Olendorf and Yan Wang”; 12. A Framework for Social Network Sentiment Analysis Using Big Data Analytics, by “Bharat Sri Harsha Karpurapu and Leon Jololian”; 13. Big Data Analytics and Visualization: Finance, by “P. Shyam and Larry Mave”; 14. Study of Hardware Trojans in a Closed Loop Control System for an Internet-of-Things Application, by “Ranveer Kumar and Karthikeyan Lingasubramanian”; 15. High Performance/Throughput Computing Workflow for a Neuro-Imaging Application: Provenance and Approaches, by “T. Anthony, J. P. Robinson, J. Marstrander, G. Brook, M. Horton, and F. Skidmore.” The review of the above diverse content convinces me that the promise of the wide application of big data becomes abundantly evident. A comprehensive transdisciplinary approach is also evident from the list of chapters. At this point I have to invoke the roadmap published by the National Academy of Sciences titled “Convergence: Facilitating Transdisciplinary Integration of Life Sciences, Physical Sciences, Engineering, and Beyond” (ISBN 978-0-309-30151-0). This document and its NSF counterpart states convergence as “an approach to problem solving that cuts across disciplinary boundaries. It integrates knowledge, tools, and ways of thinking from life and health sciences, physical, mathematical, and computational sciences, engineering disciplines, and beyond to form a comprehensive synthetic framework for tackling scientific and societal challenges that exist at the interfaces of multiple fields.” Big data and associated analytics is a twenty-first century area of interest, providing a transdisciplinary framework to the problems that can be addressed with convergence. Interestingly, the Society for Design and Process Science (SDPS), www.sdpsnet. org, which one of the authors has been involved with from the beginning, has been investigating convergence issues since 1995. The founding technical principle of SDPS has been to identify the unique “approach to problem solving that cuts across disciplinary boundaries.” The answer was the observation that the notions of Design and Process cut across all disciplines and they should be studied scientifically in their own merits, while being applied for developing the engineering of artifacts. This book brings the design and process matters to the forefront through the study of data science and, as such, brings an important perspective on convergence. Incidentally, the SDPS 2017 conference was dedicated to “Convergence Solutions.” SDPS is an international, cross-disciplinary, multicultural organization dedicated to transformative research and education through transdisciplinary means. SDPS celebrated its twenty-second year during the SDPS 2017 conference with emphasis on convergence. Civilizations depend on technology and technology comes from knowledge. The integration of knowledge is the key for the twenty-first century problems. Data science in general and Big Data Visual Analytics in particular are part of the answer to our growing problems. This book is a timely addition to serve data science and visual analytics community of students and scientists. We hope that it will be published on time to be distributed during the SDPS 2018 conference. The comprehensive and practical nature of the book, addressing complex twenty-first century engineering problems in a transdisciplinary manner, is something to be celebrated. I am, as one of the Foreword vii founders of SDPS, a military and commercial systems developer, industrial grade software developer, and a teacher, very honored to write this foreword for this important practical book. I am convinced that it will take its rightful place in this growing area of importance.
