Abstract:
A computer-implemented method of determining the location of a mobile device comprising a camera. The method comprises the steps of capturing, using the camera, a sequence of images over a period of time; for pairs of consecutive images from the sequence of images, determining, using a first neural network, features indicative of the motion of the device between the time the first image of the pair of images was captured and the time the second image of the pair of images was captured; for a sequence of consecutive images, determining, using a second neural network, features indicative of the location of the device from the features determined by the first neural network; and for a sequence of consecutive images, determining the location of the device from the features determined by the second neural network.
