A curated list of awesome visual localization research works.
A curated list of visual (re)localization resources, inspired by awesome-computer-vision. The list focuses on the research of visual localization, i.e. estimates 6 DoF camera poses of query RGB/RGB-D frames in known scenes (with databases).
This document is a work in progress. Please suggest papers/resources through pull requests. If you believe this list is missing something or has factually inaccurate info, you can also new an issue. All contributions are appreciated.
Approaches of this type estimate the camera pose directly from the query frame.
Approaches of this type first find correspondences between the query frame and the scene (database), then estimate the camera pose through optimization with RANSAC.
