Visual Localization Using Semantic Segmentation and Depth Prediction
share
In this paper, we propose a monocular visual localization pipeline leveraging semantic and depth cues. We apply semantic consistency evaluation to rank the image retrieval results and a practical clustering technique to reject estimation outliers. In addition, we demonstrate a substantial performance boost achieved with a combination of multiple feature extractors. Furthermore, by using depth prediction with a deep neural network, we show that a significant amount of falsely matched keypoints are identified and eliminated. The proposed pipeline outperforms most of the existing approaches at the Long-Term Visual Localization benchmark 2020.
