Abstract
The presence of an object in a query image may be searched for using a feature of the query image. A local descriptor value for the feature is first determined. Previously stored object data for various 3D objects is then retrieved, with each set of stored object data including a probability distribution that describes a feature of a 3D object as obtained from images at different camera poses. A probability value is then determined using the local descriptor value for the feature in the query image and the available distribution data from the stored object data. The distribution data is then ranked based on the resulting probability values and the highest ranked distribution data is associated with the feature in the query image. Output data may also be generated to identify the 3D object in the query image based on an object identifier of the highest ranked distribution data.
