It is essential for a robot to be able to detect revisits or loop closures for long-term visual navigation.A key insight explored in this work is that the loop-closing event inherently occurs sparsely, that is, the image currently being…

This paper presents a new analysis for the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm. It is shown that if the restricted isometry property (RIP) is satisfied at sparsity level $O(\bar{k})$, then OMP can recover a $\bar{k}$-sparse signal…
The $L_1/L_2$ norm ratio arose as a sparseness measure and attracted a considerable amount of attention due to three merits: (i) sharper approximations of $L_0$ compared to the $L_1$; (ii) parameter-free and scale-invariant; (iii) more…

In this paper, we study the ratio of the $L_1 $ and $L_2 $ norms, denoted as $L_1/L_2$, to promote sparsity. Due to the non-convexity and non-linearity, there has been little attention to this scale-invariant model. Compared to popular…
