Workshop Video Link

Visual odometry and localization maintain an increasing interest in recent years, especially with the extensive applications on autonomous driving, augmented reality, and mobile computing. With the location information obtained through odometry, services based on location clues are also rapidly emerging. This workshop invites papers in the areas including advances in visual odometry and computer vision applications based on location context in topics listed below, but not limited:

  • Long-Term Operation of Localization and Mapping

  • Geometric Methods for SLAM in Dynamic Environments

  • Hybrid (Learning + Geometry) SLAM Systems

  • Semantic-context applied to SLAM, VO, and Visual Localization

  • Applications of SLAM, VO, and Visual Localization in challenging domains

  • SLAM / VO / Visual Localization Datasets, Benchmarks, and Metrics

  • (6DOF) Visual Localization

  • Place Recognition

  • Image Retrieval

  • (Deep Learned) Local Features and Matching

  • Deep Learning for Scene Coordinate Regression and Camera Pose Regression

  • 3D Reconstruction for Mapping

  • Augmented / Mixed / Virtual Reality applications based on Visual Localization, SLAM, or VO

  • Applications based on Visual Localization, SLAM, or VO in the area of Robotics and Autonomous Driving

  • Semantic Scene Understanding for Localization and Mapping

  • Simultaneous Localization and Mapping

  • (3D) (Semantic) Scene Understanding and Scene Representations

  • Image-based localization and navigation

  • Monocular and Stereo Visual Odometry

  • Multi-Modal Visual Sensor Data Fusion
