Notes:
Recently, there has been significant progress towards
lifelong, autonomous operation of mobile robots, especially
in the field of localization and mapping. One important challenge in this context is visual localization under substantial perceptual changes, for example, coming from different seasons. In this paper, we present an approach to localize a mobile robot with a low frequency camera with respect to an image sequence, recorded previously within a different season. Our approach uses a discrete Bayes filter and a sensor model based on whole image descriptors. Thereby it exploits sequential information to model the dynamics of the system. Since we compute a probability distribution over the whole state space, our approach can handle more complex trajectories that may include same season loop-closures as well as fragmented sub-sequences. Throughout an extensive experimental evaluation on challenging datasets, we demonstrate that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art techniques.
