Improved image GPS location estimation by mining salient features

作者：

Highlights：

• A salient region mining and salient feature selection based image GPS estimation approach is proposed.

• We utilize the mechanism of feedback to improve GPS estimation performance. We measure the contributions of the each salient parts to GPS estimation quantitatively.

• We fuse saliency of each BoW in determining the image taken place.
