Abstract
A mobile client device is localized based on a captured image by identifying where the client device is located from a set of known locations. The set of known locations is associated with a set of regions, where each region is associated with a set of key frames representing the important features of the region. Latent vectors and keypoints are calculated for each of the key frames and an image captured by the client device. The system compares the latent vectors of the captured image to the latent vectors associated with the regions to determine a subset of similar regions. The system compares the keypoints of the captured image to the keypoints associated with the regions in the subset to determine a best match. This determined location is considered the region of the client device and may be used with other localization information to maintain localization of the client device.
