Abstract
The present disclosure describes approaches for evaluating interest points for localization uses based on a repeatability of the detection of the interest point in images capturing a scene that includes the interest point. The repeatability of interest points is determined by using a trained repeatability model. The repeatability model is trained by analyzing a time series of images of a scene and determining repeatability functions for each interest point in the scene. The repeatability function is determined by identifying which images in the time series of images allowed for the detection of the interest point by an interest point detection model.
