This paper is an overview to Visual Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (V-SLAM). We
discuss the basic definitions in the SLAM and vision system fields and provide a review of …

Autonomous driving vehicles require both a precise localization and mapping solution in
different driving environment. In this context, Simultaneous Localization and Mapping …

As a fundamental and critical task in various visual applications, image matching can identify
then correspond the same or similar structure/content from two or more images. Over the …

Multimodal image matching, which refers to identifying and then corresponding the same or
similar structure/content from two or more images that are of significant modalities or …

Over the past few decades, interest in theories and algorithms for face recognition has been
growing rapidly. Video surveillance, criminal identification, building access control, and …

We introduce a comprehensive benchmark for local features and robust estimation
algorithms, focusing on the downstream task—the accuracy of the reconstructed camera …

Where am I? This is one of the most critical questions that any intelligent system should
answer to decide whether it navigates to a previously visited area. This problem has long …

Computer vision has become increasingly important and effective in recent years due to its
wide-ranging applications in areas as diverse as smart surveillance and monitoring, health …

Keypoint detection & descriptors are foundational technologies for computer vision tasks like
image matching, 3D reconstruction and visual odometry. Hand-engineered methods like …

To address the limitations of current sensor systems for field applications, the research
community has been actively exploring new technologies that can advance the state-of-the …
