To solve the above problem, this paper proposes a clustering noise reduction method based on keyframe extraction. First, the dimension of a scan is reduced to a histogram, and the histogram is used to extract the keyframes. The scans that do not contain new environmental information are dropped. Secondly, the laser points in the keyframe are divided into different regions by the region segmentation method. Next, the points are separately clustered in different regions and it is attempted to merge the point sets from adjacent regions. This greatly reduces the dimension of clustering. Finally, the obtained clusters are filtered. The sets with the number of laser points lower than the threshold will be dropped as abnormal clusters. Different from the traditional clustering noise reduction method, the technique not only drops some unnecessary scans but also uses a region segmentation method to accelerate clustering. Therefore, it has better real-time performance and denoising effect. Experiments on the MIT dataset show that the method can improve the trajectory accuracy based on dropping a part of the scans and save a lot of time for the SLAM system. It is very friendly to mobile robots with limited computing resources.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23010018","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,21]],"date-time":"2022-12-21T02:04:21Z","timestamp":1671588261000},"page":"18","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Clustering Denoising of 2D LiDAR Scanning in Indoor Environment Based on Keyframe Extraction"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Weiwei","family":"Hu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Electronics and Information, Hangzhou Dianzi University, Hangzhou 310018, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Keke","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Electronics and Information, Hangzhou Dianzi University, Hangzhou 310018, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lihuan","family":"Shao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Electronics and Information, Hangzhou Dianzi University, Hangzhou 310018, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4541-9644","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Qinglei","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Electronics and Information, Hangzhou Dianzi University, Hangzhou 310018, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yongzhu","family":"Hua","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Electronics and Information, Hangzhou Dianzi University, Hangzhou 310018, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jin","family":"Qin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hangzhou Pioneer Technology, Hangzhou 310018, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Lee, J., Shiotsuka, D., Nishimori, T., Nakao, K., and Kamijo, S.
