TLDR
It is shown that machine learning can be used to derive a feature detector which can fully process live PAL video using less than 7% of the available processing time.Abstract:
Where feature points are used in real-time frame-rate applications, a high-speed feature detector is necessary. Feature detectors such as SIFT (DoG), Harris and SUSAN are good methods which yield high quality features, however they are too computationally intensive for use in real-time applications of any complexity. Here we show that machine learning can be used to derive a feature detector which can fully process live PAL video using less than 7% of the available processing time. By comparison neither the Harris detector (120%) nor the detection stage of SIFT (300%) can operate at full frame rate.
Clearly a high-speed detector is of limited use if the features produced are unsuitable for downstream processing. In particular, the same scene viewed from two different positions should yield features which correspond to the same real-world 3D locations [1]. Hence the second contribution of this paper is a comparison corner detectors based on this criterion applied to 3D scenes. This comparison supports a number of claims made elsewhere concerning existing corner detectors. Further, contrary to our initial expectations, we show that despite being principally constructed for speed, our detector significantly outperforms existing feature detectors according to this criterion.read more

ORB: An efficient alternative to SIFT or SURF
TL;DR: This paper proposes a very fast binary descriptor based on BRIEF, called ORB, which is rotation invariant and resistant to noise, and demonstrates through experiments how ORB is at two orders of magnitude faster than SIFT, while performing as well in many situations.

ORB-SLAM: A Versatile and Accurate Monocular SLAM System
TL;DR: ORB-SLAM as discussed by the authors is a feature-based monocular SLAM system that operates in real time, in small and large indoor and outdoor environments, with a survival of the fittest strategy that selects the points and keyframes of the reconstruction.

Parallel Tracking and Mapping for Small AR Workspaces
Georg Klein,David W. Murray +1 more
TL;DR: A system specifically designed to track a hand-held camera in a small AR workspace, processed in parallel threads on a dual-core computer, that produces detailed maps with thousands of landmarks which can be tracked at frame-rate with accuracy and robustness rivalling that of state-of-the-art model-based systems.

ORB-SLAM: a Versatile and Accurate Monocular SLAM System
TL;DR: A survival of the fittest strategy that selects the points and keyframes of the reconstruction leads to excellent robustness and generates a compact and trackable map that only grows if the scene content changes, allowing lifelong operation.

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.

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.

Good features to track

TL;DR: A feature selection criterion that is optimal by construction because it is based on how the tracker works, and a feature monitoring method that can detect occlusions, disocclusions, and features that do not correspond to points in the world are proposed.
