CLAD: Keypoint Matching Using Global Line Correspondences
Traditional keypoint descriptors, such as SIFT (Scale-Invariant Feature Transform) and ORB (Oriented FAST and Rotated BRIEF), are computed from local image patches. They may be unreliable in scenes with repetitive patterns or weak textures, where patches at different locations can look similar. We propose the Contextual Line-Assisted Descriptor (CLAD), a keypoint matching method that addresses this problem by using global geometric context from line correspondences. CLAD represents each keypoint with a vector whose elements indicate its proximity to matched lines. It can therefore use the keypoint's spatial relationships to the lines in the scene. We use HOME (Hough-space One-dimensional ...
