VLAD-BuFF: Burst-aware Fast Feature Aggregation for Visual Place Recognition

Ahmad Khaliq, Ming Xu, Stephen Hausler, Michael J Milford, Sourav Garg*

ECCV 2024poster

"Visual Place Recognition (VPR) is a crucial component of many visual localization pipelines for embodied agents. VPR is often formulated as an image retrieval task aimed at jointly learning local features and an aggregation method. The current state-of-the-art VPR methods rely on VLAD aggregation,…

MultiRes-NetVLAD: Augmenting Place Recognition Training With Low-Resolution Imagery

Ahmad Khaliq, Michael Milford, Sourav Garg

RA-L 2022

Visual Place Recognition (VPR) is a crucial component of 6-DoF localization, visual SLAM and structure-from-motion pipelines, tasked to generate an initial list of place match hypotheses by matching global place descriptors. However, commonly-used CNN-based methods either process multiple image reso
