This work was continued with a Multi-View version of our method, please find our latest work at Condition-Invariant Multi-View Place Recognition

How to use:

We recommend the use of a virtual enviroment for the use of this project. (pew)

$ pew new venvname -p python3 # replace venvname with your prefered name (it also works with python 2.7)

1. Install Caffe

Install Caffe following the instructions.

Please notice if you are using a virtual enviroment to install the python requirements inside the virtual enviroment:

$ pew in venvname
(venvname)$ pip install $req # req variable contains python module to be installed

And add Caffe python module to the PATH in the virtual enviroment:

(venvname)$ pew add caffe/python # replace the path with the path to your caffe repo

2. Install Remaining Dependences

Install remaining dependences:

(venvname)$ for req in $(cat requirements.txt); do pip install $req; done

3. Run Test

To run our demo please run:

(venvname)$ python test_norland.py --help

Note: This version runs with the downsampled version of Partitioned Nordland.
