From Washington, D.C., NewsRx journalists report that a patent application by the inventors Brostow, Gabriel J. (London, GB); Garcia-Hernando, Guillermo (London, GB); Rau, Anita (London, GB); Turmukhambetov, Daniyar (London, GB), filed on October 13, 2023, was made available online on February 8, 2024. No assignee for this patent application has been made. News editors obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “ “The subject matter described relates generally to computer vision, and in particular to determining visual overlap of images. “Determination of visual overlap of images is useful for three-dimensional (3D) re-localization and reconstruction in various applications, such as augmented/virtual/mixed reality (e.g., parallel reality game), robot navigation (e.g., self-driving vehicle), and so on. For example, 3D re-localization and reconstruction often requires a determination of the extent to which two images picturing the same 3D surface. However, conventional methods for such a determination can be very expensive, as the conventional methods typically require local feature matching and geometric verification of relative pose between every pair of images. The cost is further multiplied when a query image is evaluated against a gallery, especially when many images in the gallery are irrelevant. Thus, improved technology for image matching is needed.”
