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.

On-road vehicle tracking using keypoint-based representation and online co-training

TL;DR: The proposed tracking method follows “tracking-by-detection” framework and uses co-training to construct a system with increasing learning ability, which employs integrated information, including classified keypoints, templates, and symmetry, to perform “reappearance detection” when object disappears.

Scale Accuracy Evaluation of Image-Based 3D Reconstruction Strategies Using Laser Photogrammetry

TL;DR: The study demonstrates that surveys with multiple overlaps of nonsequential images result in a nearly identical solution regardless of the strategy (SfM or navigation fusion), while surveys with weakly connected sequentially acquired images are prone to produce broad-scale deformation when navigation is not included in the optimization.

Semantic motion segmentation for urban dynamic scene understanding

TL;DR: This paper proposes an approach to infer both the object class and motion status for each pixel of images and uses a fully connected CRF to integrate motion into semantic segmentation.

A Combined Approach Toward Consistent Reconstructions of Indoor Spaces Based on 6D RGB-D Odometry and KinectFusion

TL;DR: The experimental results show that the proposed reconstruction method solely based on visual odometry and KinectFusion outperforms the state-of-the-art RGB-D SLAM system accuracy.

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.
