ENSEMBLE IMAGE SUPER-RESOLUTION FOR UAV GEO-LOCALIZATION
In this paper, we address the challenge of visual geo-localization from low-quality UAV imagery captured in real world environments. We propose a two-stage architecture, which includes Super-Resolution and visual geo-localization. We introduced novel, non-learnable Ensemble Super-Resolution (ESR) module, which first refines upscaled aerial frames, then seamlessly feeds the enhanced imagery into a visual geo-localization pipeline.
