Information retrieval techniques have demonstrated exceptional capabilities in identifying semantic similarities across diverse domains through robust feature representations. However, their potential in guiding synthesis tasks,…
Geometric verification is considered a de facto solution for the re-ranking task in image retrieval. In this study, we propose a novel image retrieval re-ranking network named Correlation Verification Networks (CVNet). Our proposed network,…
Location recognition is commonly treated as visual instance retrieval on "street view" imagery. The dataset items and queries are panoramic views, i.e. groups of images taken at a single location. This work introduces a novel…
Localization in GNSS-denied and GNSS-degraded environments is a challenge for the safe widespread deployment of autonomous vehicles. Such GNSS-challenged environments require alternative methods for robust localization. In this work, we…
Cross-view geo-localization plays a critical role in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) localization and navigation. However, significant challenges arise from the drastic viewpoint differences and appearance variations between images. Existing…
Cross-view UAV geolocalization is fundamentally a challenging large-scale image retrieval task, aiming to determine the geographic coordinates of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) queries by matching them against an extensive geo-tagged…
Street-to-aerial image geo-localization, which matches a query street-view image to the GPS-tagged aerial images in a reference set, has attracted increasing attention recently. In this paper, we revisit this problem and point out the…
Cross-view object geo-localization (CVOGL) aims to locate an object of interest in a captured ground- or drone-view image within the satellite image. However, existing works treat ground-view and drone-view query images equivalently,…
Geo-localization from a single image at planet scale (essentially an advanced or extreme version of the kidnapped robot problem) is a fundamental and challenging task in applications such as navigation, autonomous driving and disaster…
We examine the challenge of estimating the location of a single ground-level image in the absence of GPS or other location metadata. Currently, geolocation systems are evaluated by measuring the Great Circle Distance between the predicted…
Bird's-eye-view (BEV) images have been widely demonstrated to provide valuable prior information for navigation. Given the global information provided by such views, two key challenges remain: how to fully exploit this information and how…
In this paper, we address the problem of wide-baseline camera pose estimation from a group of 360$^\circ$ panoramas under upright-camera assumption. Recent work has demonstrated the merit of deep-learning for end-to-end direct relative pose…
Cross-view geo-localization (CVGL) is fundamental for precise localization and navigation in GPS-denied environments, aiming to match ground or UAV imagery with satellite views. Existing approaches often rely on global feature alignment,…
Cross-view geo-localization determines the location of a query image, captured by a drone or ground-based camera, by matching it to a geo-referenced satellite image. While traditional approaches focus on image-level localization, many…
In this paper, we propose a new image-based visual place recognition (VPR) framework by exploiting the structural cues in bird's-eye view (BEV) from a single monocular camera. The motivation arises from two key observations about place…
Existing spatial localization techniques for autonomous vehicles mostly use a pre-built 3D-HD map, often constructed using a survey-grade 3D mapping vehicle, which is not only expensive but also laborious. This paper shows that by using an…
In this work, we address the problem of cross-view geo-localization, which estimates the geospatial location of a street view image by matching it with a database of geo-tagged aerial images. The cross-view matching task is extremely…
Cross-view geolocalization (CVGL) systems, while effective at retrieving a list of relevant candidates (high Recall@k), often fail to identify the single best match (low Top-1 accuracy). This work investigates the use of zero-shot…
Accurate perception and scene understanding in complex urban environments is a critical challenge for ensuring safe and efficient autonomous navigation. In this paper, we present Co-Win, a novel bird's eye view (BEV) perception framework…
Efficient relocalization is essential for intelligent vehicles when GPS reception is insufficient or sensor-based localization fails. Recent advances in Bird's-Eye-View (BEV) segmentation allow for accurate estimation of local scene…
