PixLoc is a scene-agnostic neural network that estimates an accurate 6-DoF pose from an image and a 3D model. It is based on the direct alignment of multiscale deep features, casting camera localization as metric learning. PixLoc learns strong data priors by end-to-end training from pixels to pose and exhibits exceptional generalization to new scenes by separating model parameters and scene geometry. As the CNN never sees 3D points, PixLoc can generalize to any 3D structure available. This includes sparse SfM point clouds, dense depth maps from stereo or RGBD sensors, meshes, Lidar scans, but also lines and other primitives.
