Fast and robust photomapping with an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)
— A fast and robust method for visual odometry based on the Fourier-Mellin Invariant (FMI) descriptor is presented. It extends previous FMI based approaches in two ways. First, a...

An image-to-map loop closing method for monocular SLAM
— In this paper we present a loop closure method for a handheld single–camera SLAM system based on our previous work on relocalisation. By finding correspondences between the ...

Generic Detection of Multi-Part Objects by High-Level Analysis
A method is proposed to detect multi-part man-made or natural objects in complex images. It consists in first extracting simple curves and straight lines from the edge map. Then,...

A Proof for the Approximate Sparsity of SLAM Information Matrices
— For the Simultaneous Localization and Mapping problem several efficient algorithms have been proposed that make use of a sparse information matrix representation (e.g. SEIF, T...
