LARGE SCALE CNN REGRESSION BASED LOCALIZATION VIA TWO-DIMENSIONAL MAP

Abstract:

Embodiments described herein provide a processing apparatus comprising compute logic to train a convolutional neural network (CNN) to perform autonomous re-localization for a service robot or mobile device. In one embodiment the apparatus comprises an image processor to process visual data received via a sensor and a general purpose graphics processing engine perform camera pose estimation for image data and generate a transformation matrix to transform positions of camera pose estimations to positions within a human readable map of the location. The images and transformed positions are uses to train the CNN to perform re-localization.
