TLDR
A suite of scale-invariant center-surround detectors (CenSurE) that outperform the other detectors, yet have better computational characteristics than other scale-space detectors, and are capable of real-time implementation are introduced.
Abstract
We explore the suitability of different feature detectors for the task of image registration, and in particular for visual odometry, using two criteria: stability (persistence across viewpoint change) and accuracy (consistent localization across viewpoint change). In addition to the now-standard SIFT, SURF, FAST, and Harris detectors, we introduce a suite of scale-invariant center-surround detectors (CenSurE) that outperform the other detectors, yet have better computational characteristics than other scale-space detectors, and are capable of real-time implementation.

Summarizing large scale 3D mesh for urban navigation

TL;DR: In this article , the authors proposed a solution to summarize a map by reducing the size while maintaining the relevance of the data for navigation based on vision only, which consists in a set of spherical images augmented by depth and semantic information and allowing to keep the same level of visibility in every directions.

China's oases have expanded by nearly 40% over the past 20 years

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors analyzed the spatiotemporal evolution of China's oases between 2000 and 2020, based on the normalized difference vegetation index derived from moderate imaging spectroradiometer data, combined with superpixel image segmentation, region adjacency graph merging method, and the genetic algorithm.

Distinctive Image Features from Scale-Invariant Keypoints

TL;DR: This paper presents a method for extracting distinctive invariant features from images that can be used to perform reliable matching between different views of an object or scene and can robustly identify objects among clutter and occlusion while achieving near real-time performance.

Random sample consensus: a paradigm for model fitting with applications to image analysis and automated cartography

TL;DR: New results are derived on the minimum number of landmarks needed to obtain a solution, and algorithms are presented for computing these minimum-landmark solutions in closed form that provide the basis for an automatic system that can solve the Location Determination Problem under difficult viewing.

A Combined Corner and Edge Detector

TL;DR: The problem the authors are addressing in Alvey Project MMI149 is that of using computer vision to understand the unconstrained 3D world, in which the viewed scenes will in general contain too wide a diversity of objects for topdown recognition techniques to work.

SURF: speeded up robust features

TL;DR: A novel scale- and rotation-invariant interest point detector and descriptor, coined SURF (Speeded Up Robust Features), which approximates or even outperforms previously proposed schemes with respect to repeatability, distinctiveness, and robustness, yet can be computed and compared much faster.

Robust real-time face detection

TL;DR: A new image representation called the “Integral Image” is introduced which allows the features used by the detector to be computed very quickly and a method for combining classifiers in a “cascade” which allows background regions of the image to be quickly discarded while spending more computation on promising face-like regions.
