TL;DR: The high utility of MSERs, multiple measurement regions and the robust metric is demonstrated in wide-baseline experiments on image pairs from both indoor and outdoor scenes.

TL;DR: The wide-baseline stereo problem, i.e. the problem of establishing correspondences between a pair of images taken from different viewpoints, is studied and an efficient and practically fast detection algorithm is presented for an affinely-invariant stable subset of extremal regions, the maximally stable extremal region (MSER).

TL;DR: A convolutional neural network architecture that is trainable in an end-to-end manner directly for the place recognition task and an efficient training procedure which can be applied on very large-scale weakly labelled tasks are developed.

TL;DR: This paper introduces the first benchmark datasets specifically designed for analyzing the impact of day-night changes, weather and seasonal variations, as well as sequence-based localization approaches and the need for better local features on visual localization.

TL;DR: This work proposes an approach where a single convolutional neural network plays a dual role: It is simultaneously a dense feature descriptor and a feature detector, and shows that this model can be trained using pixel correspondences extracted from readily available large-scale SfM reconstructions, without any further annotations.
