摘要：
从异构传感器检测中在线融合和跟踪静态物体是机器人、自主系统和环境建图中的基本问题。尽管经典数据关联方法如JPDA适合动态目标，但在间歇性和异质不确定性的静态物体观测中效果较差，因为运动模型对杂波的判别能力有限。本文提出了一种新颖的静态物体数据关联方法SODA-CitrON，通过在线聚类多模态传感器检测，同时估计位置并维持未知数量物体的持久跟踪。所提出的无监督机器学习方法完全在线运行，处理时间上不相关的多传感器测量。此外，它在传感器检测数量上具有最坏情况下的对数线性复杂度，同时提供完整的输出可解释性。我们在不同的蒙特卡洛模拟场景中评估了该方法，并将其与基于POM的过滤、DBSTREAM聚类和JPDA等现有方法进行比较。结果表明，在研究的静态物体建图场景中，SODA-CitrON在F1分数、位置RMSE、MOTP和MOTA指标上始终优于比较方法。
英文摘要：
The online fusion and tracking of static objects from heterogeneous sensor detections is a fundamental problem in robotics, autonomous systems, and environmental mapping. Although classical data association approaches such as JPDA are well suited for dynamic targets, they are less effective for static objects observed intermittently and with heterogeneous uncertainties, where motion models provide minimal discriminative power with respect to clutter. In this paper, we propose a novel method for static object data association by clustering multi-modal sensor detections online (SODA-CitrON), while simultaneously estimating positions and maintaining persistent tracks for an unknown number of objects. The proposed unsupervised machine learning approach operates in a fully online manner and handles temporally uncorrelated and multi-sensor measurements. Additionally, it has a worst-case loglinear complexity in the number of sensor detections while providing full output explainability. We evaluate the proposed approach in different Monte Carlo simulation scenarios and compare it against state-of-the-art methods, including POM-based filtering, DBSTREAM clustering, and JPDA. The results demonstrate that SODA-CitrON consistently outperforms the compared methods in terms of F1 score, position RMSE, MOTP, and MOTA in the static object mapping scenarios studied.
