TITLE
Visual Localization in Underwater Robotics: Deep Learning and 3D Perception Challenges
ABSTRACT
Visual localization is essential for autonomous navigation in underwater robotics, where the absence of GPS and harsh visual conditions pose significant challenges for traditional methods.
This talk explores deep learning architectures for visual localization, highlighting both the opportunities and unique challenges they present in the underwater domain.
A central focus will be the problem of high-dimensional data representation in 3D perception, and the need for neural architectures specifically designed to handle this complexity.
