Abstract

Homography estimation is a basic and important step in many computer vision tasks. Traditional homography estimation methods are based on feature point matching, which are difficult to work in weak texture images. Deep learning has been applied to homography estimation to improve its robustness, but the existing methods do not consider the multi-scale problem caused by object scale differences, resulting in limited accuracy. To solve the above problems, this paper proposed a multi-scale residual network for homography estimation. The network could extract the multi-scale feature of the image, and used the multi-scale feature fusion module to effectively fuse the features. In addition, it further reduced the difficulty of network optimization by estimating the four-corner normalized offset. Experiments on MS-COCO dataset show that the average corner error of this method is only 0.788 pixels, which achieves sub-pixel accuracy, and can maintain high accuracy in 99% of cases. Due to the comprehensive utilization of multi-scale features and easier to optimize, this method has significantly improved accuracy and stronger robustness.
