Synthetic-real image domain adaptation for indoor camera pose regression using a 3D model

Abstract

Deep learning-based camera pose regression approaches have achieved outstanding performance for visual indoor localisation. However, these approaches are limited by the availability of images with known camera poses, and they often require a comprehensive mapping of the indoor scenes, which is labour-intensive and often impractical. Recent studies have shown that synthetic images derived from simple 3D building models can be used to train deep learning models to perform cross-domain synthetic-to-real visual localisation. But the performance of such cross-domain localisation models is degraded due to the domain gap between the real and synthetic images. In this study, we propose a domain adap..
