CFORB: Circular FREAK-ORB Visual Odometry
We present a novel Visual Odometry algorithm entitled Circular FREAK-ORB (CFORB). This algorithm detects features using the well-known ORB algorithm [12] and computes feature descriptors using the FREAK algorithm [14]. CFORB is invariant to both rotation and scale changes, and is suitable for use in environments with uneven terrain. Two visual geometric constraints have been utilized in order to remove invalid feature descriptor matches. These constraints have not previously been utilized in a Visual Odometry algorithm. A variation to circular matching [16] has also been implemented. This allows features to be matched between images without having to be dependent upon the epipolar constraint. This algorithm has been run on the KITTI benchmark dataset and achieves a competitive average translational error of $3.73 \%$ and average rotational error of $0.0107 deg/m$. CFORB has also been run in an indoor environment and achieved an average translational error of $3.70 \%$. After running CFORB in a highly textured environment with an approximately uniform feature spread across the images, the algorithm achieves an average translational error of $2.4 \%$ and an average rotational error of $0.009 deg/m$.

Robust Stereo Feature Descriptor for Visual Odometry
In this paper, we propose a simple way to utilize stereo camera data to improve feature descriptors. Computer vision algorithms that use a stereo camera require some calculations of 3D information. We leverage this pre-c…

Audio-Visual SynchronizationQuantifying Motion Excitation for Metric Scale Observability in Monocular Visual-Inertial Odometry
Monocular visual-inertial odometry (VIO) cannot recover metric scale from vision alone; scale must be resolved through inertial measurements. We present a trajectory-dependent observability analysis showing that translat…
Content-Based Image Retrieval Based on Late Fusion of Binary and Local Descriptors
One of the challenges in Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is to reduce the semantic gaps between low-level features and high-level semantic concepts. In CBIR, the images are represented in the feature space and the p…
