Abstract

We present a novel, robust guided matching technique. Given a set of calibrated spherical images along with the associated sparse 3D point cloud, our approach consistently finds matches across the images in a multilayer feature detection framework. New feature matches are used to refine existing 3D points or to add reliable ones to the point cloud, therefore improving scene representation. We use real indoor and outdoor scenarios to validate the robustness of the proposed approach. Moreover, we perform a quantitative evaluation of our technique to demonstrate its effectiveness.
