• Abstract: We propose a new method for estimating the relative pose between two images, where we jointly learn keypoint detection, description extraction, matching and robust pose estimation. While our architecture follows the traditional pipeline for pose estimation from geometric computer vision, all steps are learnt in an end-to-end fashion, including feature matching. We demonstrate our method for the task of visual localization of a query image within a database of images with known pose. Pairwise pose estimation has many practical applications for robotic mapping, navigation, and AR. For example, the display of persistent AR objects in the scene relies on a precise camera localization to make the digital models appear anchored to the physical environment. We train our pipeline end-to-end specifically for the problem of visual localization. We evaluate our proposed approach on localization accuracy, robustness and runtime speed. Our method achieves state of the art localization accuracy on the 7 Scenes dataset.

  This paper introduces KRONC, a novel approach aimed at inferring view poses by leveraging prior knowledge about the object to reconstruct and its representation through semantic keypoints. With a focus on vehicle scenes, KRONC is able to estimate the position of the views as a solution to a light optimization problem targeting the convergence of keypoints' back-projections to a singular point.

  We propose a novel online approach to learning the pose dynamics, which are independent of pose detections in current fame. Specifically, we derive this prediction of dynamics through a graph neural network(GNN) that explicitly accounts for both spatial-temporal and visual information. Experiments on PoseTrack 2017 and PoseTrack 2018 datasets demonstrate that the proposed method achieves results superior to the state of the art on both human pose estimation and tracking tasks.
