PLED-VINS: A Point-Line Event-Based Visual Inertial SLAM for Dynamic Environments

arXiv:2607.07374v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dynamic environments remain a fundamental challenge for visual SLAM, where unreliable observations from moving objects and rapid motion degrade state estimation accuracy. Although event cameras preserve fine-grained spatio-temporal information, most existing event-based SLAM frameworks still assume static scenes and lack approaches to estimate the reliability of features.

arXiv:2607.07374v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dynamic environments remain a fundamental challenge for visual SLAM, where unreliable observations from moving objects and rapid motion degrade state estimation accuracy. Although event cameras preserve fine-grained spatio-temporal information, most existing event-based SLAM frameworks still assume static scenes and lack approaches to estimate the reliability of features. To this end, we propose PLED-VINS, a monocular event camera-based visual-inertial SLAM framework that enables robust state estimation in dynamic environments. We propose an entropy-recency score map to characterize the temporal reliability of both point and line features based on event temporal statistics. Concurrently, geometric reliability is estimated via a unified point-line robust bundle adjustment. Building upon these, we design an adaptive weighting strategy that fuses temporal and geometric reliability, including motion-conditioned reliability modeling for line features, to suppress unreliable observations. Experimental results demonstrate that PLED-VINS improves state estimation on the evaluated dynamic sequences with moving objects.
