For interacting with mobile objects in unfamiliar environments, simultaneously locating, mapping, and tracking the 3D poses of multiple objects are crucially required.  This paper proposes a Tracklet and Query Graph based framework, i.e., GSLAMOT to address this challenge. GSLAMOT represents the dynamic scene by a combination of semantic map,  agent trajectory, and an online maintained Tracklet Graph (TG). TG tracks and predicts the 3D poses of the detected active objects. A Query Graph (QG) is constructed in each frame by object detection to query and to update TG, as well as the semantic map and the agent trajectory. For accurate object association,  a Multi-criteria Subgraph Similarity Association (MSSA) method is  proposed to find matched objects between the detections in QG and the predicted tracklets in TG. Then an Object-centric Graph Optimization (OGO) method is proposed to optimize the TG,  the semantic map,  and the agent trajectory simultaneously.  It triangulates the detected objects into the map to enrich the map's semantic information. We address the efficiency issues to handle the three tightly coupled tasks in parallel. Experiments are conducted on KITTI, Waymo, and an emulated Traffic Congestion dataset that highlights challenging scenarios including congested objects.  Experiments show that GSLAMOT enables accurately crowded object tracking while conducting SLAM accurately in challenging scenarios, demonstrating more excellent performances than the state-of-the-art methods.
