Visual relocalization aims to estimate the pose of a camera from one or more images. In recent years deep learning based pose regression methods have attracted many attentions. They feature predicting the absolute poses without relying on…
We propose KeypointGAN, a new method for recognizing the pose of objects from a single image that for learning uses only unlabelled videos and a weak empirical prior on the object poses. Video frames differ primarily in the pose of the…
