Abstract
A method for estimating a camera pose in a frame of reference of a three-dimensional scene, including: obtaining an image of colour intensities of the scene; extracting points of interest, which are invariant by geometric transformation of the image; forming patches in the image, each including an extracted point of interest; predicting 3D locations of the points of interest by applying an automatic prediction system, trained by a training set including patches from images acquired from plural points of view, an image being associated with a 2D position of its point of interest in a frame of reference of the image and with a 3D position of its point of interest in the frame of reference of the scene; estimating the pose of a camera, by mapping the 2D positions of the points of interest and reprojections in the current image frame of reference of the predicted 3D locations.
