Abstract
A computer-implemented method for implementing a self-supervised visual odometry framework using long-term modeling includes, within a pose network of the self-supervised visual odometry framework including a plurality of pose encoders, a convolution long short-term memory (ConvLSTM) module having a first-layer ConvLSTM and a second-layer ConvLSTM, and a pose prediction layer, performing a first stage of training over a first image sequence using photometric loss, depth smoothness loss and pose cycle consistency loss, and performing a second stage of training to finetune the second-layer ConvLSTM over a second image sequence longer than the first image sequence.
