Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use coarse-to-fine retrieval followed by local feature matching instead of direct matching | Hierarchical localization with RootSIFT · Aachen night | recall @ 0.5m/2°: 24.5 -> 30.6 | Helped |
| Use SuperPoint local features instead of RootSIFT | Hierarchical localization with NetVLAD global descriptors · Aachen night | recall @ 0.5m/2°: 30.6 -> 40.8 | Helped |
| Use HF-Net for both global and local features rather than separate NetVLAD and SuperPoint predictors | Hierarchical localization · RobotCar night | recall @ 0.25m/2°: 6.6 -> 2.7 | Hurt |
| Use HF-Net local features rather than SuperPoint with NetVLAD global descriptors (ablation) | Aachen localization · Aachen day | recall @ 0.25m: 79.7 -> 81.2 | Helped |
| Use HF-Net local features rather than SuperPoint with NetVLAD global descriptors (ablation) | Aachen localization · Aachen night | recall @ 0.5m: 40.8 -> 40.8 | No clear effect |
| Use DOAP rather than SuperPoint local features with NetVLAD global descriptors (ablation) | Aachen localization · Aachen day | recall @ 0.5m: 88.0 -> 88.5 | Helped |
| Use DOAP rather than SuperPoint local features with NetVLAD global descriptors (ablation) | Aachen localization · Aachen night | recall @ 0.5m: 40.8 -> 34.7 | Hurt |
| Use HF-Net global descriptors rather than NetVLAD while keeping HF-Net local features (ablation) | Aachen localization · Aachen day | recall @ 0.25m: 81.2 -> 75.7 | Hurt |
| Use HF-Net global descriptors rather than NetVLAD while keeping HF-Net local features (ablation) | Aachen localization · Aachen night | recall @ 5m: 76.5 -> 72.4 | Hurt |
| Train the global retrieval head with night images | HF-Net · Night queries | localization robustness | Helped |
| Use soft keypoint target probabilities instead of hard labels | HF-Net keypoint head · HF-Net training | keypoint performance | Helped |
