However, most of the existing technologies stillsuffer from some limitations. On one hand, most of them are sensitive tonoise and repetitive structures, which makes them infeasible for theregistration of large-scale point clouds. On the other hand, most of themdealing with point clouds with limited overlaps and unpredictablelocation. All these problems make it difficult for registration technology toobtain qualified results in outdoor point cloud. To overcome theselimitations, this paper presents a grid graph-based point cloud registration(GGR) algorithm to align pairwise scans. First, point cloud is divided into aset of 3D grids. We propose a voting strategy to measure the similaritybetween two grids based on feature descriptor, transforming thesuperficial correspondence into 3D grid expression. Next, a graphmatching is proposed to capture the spatial consistency from putativecorrespondences, and graph matching hierarchically refines thecorresponding grids until obtaining point-to-point correspondences.Comprehensive experiments demonstrated that the proposed algorithmobtains good performance in terms of successful registration rate, rotationerror, translation error, and outperformed the state-of-the-art approaches.展开更多
