However, the presence of noise and outliers in the data can significantly impair the registration performance by affecting the correctness of correspondences. To address this issue, we incorporate local consistency property into the probability-based joint registration method. Specifically, each measured point set is treated as a sample from an unknown Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), and the registration problem is framed as estimating the probability model. By incorporating local consistency into the optimization process, we enhance the robustness and accuracy of the posterior distributions, which represent the one-to-all correspondences that directly determine the registration results. Effective closed-form solution for transformation and probability parameters are derived with Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method outperforms the existing methods, achieving high accuracy and robustness with the existence of noise and outliers.
