DistributedFactorGraphs.jl
Release v0.8 | Dev | Coverage | DFG Docs | Caesar Docs |
---|---|---|---|---|
DistributedFactorGraphs.jl provides a flexible factor graph API for use in the Caesar.jl ecosystem. The package supplies:
- A standardized API for interacting with factor graphs
- Implementations of the API for in-memory and database-driven operation
- Visualization extensions to validate the underlying graph
Note this package is still under initial development, and will adopt parts of the functionality currently contained in IncrementalInference.jl.
Documentation
Please see the documentation and the unit tests for examples on using DistributedFactorGraphs.jl.
Installation
DistributedFactorGraphs can be installed from Julia packages using:
add DistributedFactorGraphs
Usage
The in-memory implementation is the default, using LightGraphs.jl.
using DistributedFactorGraphs
Both drivers support the same functions, so choose which you want to use when creating your initial DFG. For example:
# In-memory DFG
dfg = LightDFG{NoSolverParams}()
addVariable!(dfg, DFGVariable(:a))
addVariable!(dfg, DFGVariable(:b))
addFactor!(dfg, [v1, v2], DFGFactor{Int, :Symbol}(:f1)) # Rather use a RoME-type factor here (e.g. Pose2Pose2) rather than an Int, this is just for demonstrative purposes.
