Abstract

A computer implemented method for pose estimation of an image sensor includes receiving an omnidirectional image of a scene captured by an image sensor; using a trained neural network to generate a rotation equivariant feature map from the omnidirectional image of the scene; and determining information relating to the pose of said camera when capturing the scene from the rotation equivariant feature map. The rotation equivariant feature map is a SO(3) indexed feature map.
