Image-Based Localization
21 papers with code • 4 benchmarks • 6 datasets
Determining the location of an image without GPS based on cross-view matching. In most of the cases a database of satellite images is used to match the ground images to them.

Beyond Geo-localization: Fine-grained Orientation of Street-view Images by Cross-view Matching with Satellite Imagery with Supplementary Materials
Street-view imagery provides us with novel experiences to explore different places remotely.
End-to-end 2D-3D Registration between Image and LiDAR Point Cloud for Vehicle Localization
A popular approach to robot localization is based on image-to-point cloud registration, which combines illumination-invariant LiDAR-based mapping with economical image-based localization.
Long-term Visual Localization with Mobile Sensors
Despite the remarkable advances in image matching and pose estimation, image-based localization of a camera in a temporally-varying outdoor environment is still a challenging problem due to huge appearance disparity between query and reference images caused by illumination, seasonal and structural changes.
CoPR: Towards Accurate Visual Localization With Continuous Place-descriptor Regression
Firstly, the reference images for VPR are only available at sparse poses in a map, which enforces an upper bound on the maximum achievable localization accuracy through VPR.
Where We Are and What We're Looking At: Query Based Worldwide Image Geo-localization Using Hierarchies and Scenes
To this end, we introduce an end-to-end transformer-based architecture that exploits the relationship between different geographic levels (which we refer to as hierarchies) and the corresponding visual scene information in an image through hierarchical cross-attention.
CyberLoc: Towards Accurate Long-term Visual Localization
Second, a single-image-based localization pipeline (retrieval--matching--PnP) is performed to estimate 6-DoF camera poses for each query image, one for each 3D map.
Privacy Preserving Localization via Coordinate Permutations
Recent methods on privacy-preserving image-based localization use a random line parameterization to protect the privacy of query images and database maps.
Adversarial Attack Against Image-Based Localization Neural Networks
In this paper, we present a proof of concept for adversarially attacking the image-based localization module of an autonomous vehicle.
CVLNet: Cross-View Semantic Correspondence Learning for Video-based Camera Localization
The critical challenge of this task is to learn a powerful global feature descriptor for the sequential ground-view images while considering its domain alignment with reference satellite images.
Training Semantic Descriptors for Image-Based Localization
Vision based solutions for the localization of vehicles have become popular recently.
