Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is the basis for intelligent robots to explore the world. As a promising method for 3D reconstruction, 3D Gaussian splatting (3DGS) integrated with SLAM systems has shown significant potential. However, due to environmental uncertainties, errors in the tracking process with 3D Gaussians can negatively impact SLAM systems. This paper introduces a novel dense RGB-D SLAM system based on 3DGS that refines Gaussians through sub-Gaussians in the camera coordinate system. Additionally, we propose an algorithm to select keyframes closely related to the current frame, optimizing the scene map and pose of the current keyframe. This approach effectively enhances both the tracking and mapping performance. Experiments on high-quality synthetic scenes (Replica dataset) and low-quality real-world scenes (TUM-RGBD and ScanNet datasets) demonstrate that our system achieves competitive performance in tracking and mapping.
It has been widely observed that there exists no universal best Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA) dominating all other MOEAs on all possible Multi-Objective Optimization Problems (MOPs). In this work, we advocate using the Parallel Algorithm Portfolio (PAP), which runs multiple MOEAs independently in parallel and gets the best out of them, to combine the advantages of different MOEAs. Since the manual construction of PAPs is non-trivial and tedious, we propose to automatically construct high-performance PAPs for solving MOPs. Specifically, we first propose a variant of PAPs, namely MOEAs/PAP, which can better determine the output solution set for MOPs than conventional PAPs. Then, we present an automatic construction approach for MOEAs/PAP with a novel performance metric for evaluating the performance of MOEAs across multiple MOPs. Finally, we use the proposed approach to construct an MOEAs/PAP based on a training set of MOPs and an algorithm configuration space defined by several variants of NSGA-II. Experimental results show that the automatically constructed MOEAs/PAP can even rival the state-of-the-art multi-operator-based MOEAs designed by human experts, demonstrating the huge potential of the automatic construction of PAPs in multi-objective optimization.
